So when is the US going to dump the winner takes all elections and those electoral colleges, and go to a system where people can actually vote on multiple parties that all get their fair share of political power?
This is obviously a shit system and now Republicans are actually talking about how a dictatorship under trump really really wouldn’t be that bad.
Single winner elections are the problem, because no single candidate or party can represent the will of the diverse electorate. So when you get rid of first past the post, which is a terrible system that absolutely must go, don’t just replace it with instant rumoff voting or star voting or whatever voting scheme continues to ignore everyone else.

Fuck that shit, fix your democracy you dummies!
I hear the Electoral College isn’t even an accredited institution.

Proportional representation or bust.
Ranked choice is coming to Oregon. :)
