I personally find my SAD best managed by being able to take a walk in morning light and had just managed to arrange things so that I could do so even in late December, so I voted against permanent DST back when we had a referendum on the issue.
And back when I was trying to get my school-age children to bed at a reasonable hour in June, I would have been happy to vote for banning DST altogether.
