But after a tied vote in debate the result will not be politically binding on the States.
The five options are full island-wide voting; the current district based system; two separate elections, one for 10 island-wide deputies and another for 28 district deputies; having four super districts or elections every two years on an island-wide basis for 12 or 13 candidates at a time.
