Because it's all there is.
It's a difficult one for us pro-PR peeps. I don't think there was any big group pushing for AV.
It's at least some kind of change - an entirely unsatisfactory change but hopefully moving in the general direction of a more representative system.
A danger of a resounding No (from my point of view) is that it's seen as an endorsement of the current system and the issue is killed for another 20 or 30 years.
I'd rather be having a debate about PR but that's not on offer so I may vote for AV purely for the sake of change and hope it sets us towards the debate we should be having (IMO). It's not exactly stirring my soul though.
