Force through Executive Order 2004-11. The bipartisan, 13-member panel
focused on a range of issues and reforms designed to increase voter
turnout and inspire confidence on the state's electoral system. The
Task Force issued its final report to Gov. Rendell on May 12th. Among
its conclusions, were the belief that instant runoff voting and
proportional representation are relevant and ought to be studied further,
