The experience in the ballot box is actually another one that troubles me. I'm worried about making the voting process more complex, and the effect that has on people's sense of having fairly represented their own views.
I've looked around pro-AV websites, but the chief response to this question seems to be: "Are you calling people stupid?" Which I'm not. But I've seen people get very anxious faced with a FPTP ballot - how much more anxious would an AV ballot paper make them? I guess I'll have to find whether any research has been done on this.
