Apparently a lot of people voting to keep MMP didn't bother to tick a second option and so this effected the results. Me, I ticked FPP because in the event that voters wanted a change, FPP (unlike STV) wouldn't stand a chance against MMP.

If more than half the voters opt to change the voting system, Parliament will decide if there will be another Referendum in 2014 to choose between MMP and the alternative voting system that gets the most support in the second question in the 2011 Referendum.
