This will give them the right to soil their ballot paper to indicate their rebellion against political parties and have their votes counted to enforce a re-run of the electoral process; when they have 33.3% of votes cast.\r\nWe expect and want the government to debate a change in the law by amending the 2000 Representation of People Act to allow disenchanted voters' right to be recognised within our current electoral process.","committee_note":null,"state":"rejected","signature_count":1,"created_at":"2014-06-26T13:22:06.000Z","updated_at":"2020-02-16T19:30:04.876Z","rejected_at":"2017-06-21T12:44:38.302Z","opened_at":null,"closed_at":null,"moderation_threshold_reached_at":"2014-06-26T13:22:06.000Z","response_threshold_reached_at":null,"government_response_at":null,"debate_threshold_reached_at":null,"debate_scheduled_at":null,"scheduled_debate_date":null,"debate_outcome_at":null,"rejection":{"code":"duplicate","details":null},"government_response":null,"debate":null,"departments":[],"topics":[]}}}
