This is me every election except I don't soften or reverse my opposition, just try to figure out which bundle most closely matches mine and sometimes get frustrated enough that I vote third party anyways. Sometimes I take a whole ticket approach and vote one side for governor. and the other for Lt. governor. One bundle for president and the opposite bundle for senator for instance.
- asark 7y agoIf the point is to more-or-less represent the views of the people, our system does an exceptionally poor job of it, between this and lots of winner-take-all elections + gerrymandering (sorry, other 49.9% of the population, better luck next time). I'm probably less on the "more democracy is always a good thing" side of the spectrum than most in the US, but this stuff is subversion of democratic will to no clear systemic beneficial purpose. Quite the opposite, as far as I can tell.

- ginvok 7y agoIt would be great if we could vote on Policies instead of Politicians right.
