    Who says those are the flaws? Those are exactly the reasons FPTP exists.

      Yup, it’s why the powerful few like the hostile system as it allows the conquering and dividing of the people.

      The fact they cant win a majority with 20% of the vote thanks to Germany not using winner-take-all?

          I mean fascists filtrated the Republican Party and won all the power with only 49.8% of the vote in the 2024 US Presidential Election.

          Do you really want AfD to win a majority with only 20% of the vote because parties have won a majority with only 18% of the vote under fptp.

          It’s more transparent to everyone in the democracy if we all saw the amount of support they have instead of them lurking behind the 2 big tent parties.

    We’re voting to replace Matt Gaetz today. I’m not going to bother as there is a 100% chance it will be another Republican.

        I know. :( But Florida’s 1st Congressional District is utterly hopeless. Last Democrat only got 34%, and that was against Matt Fucking Gaetz.

        I’ll still vote on everything else I can, but shit, I’m tired boss.
