it's all about the statistics.It will embolden parties (and their investors) when they see who voted for who as their first choice. Like toasty said, much less tactical voting will (should, maybe) occur so parties will get a more accurate picture of their popularity. They still won't get any power, but with more votes, parties should get more investment, making them stronger runners in the future.
