Changing votes won't solve the problem in America's two-party system. It needs serious election reform not just in donations but also in how the election works.

- 93po 5y agoI think the first step is to changing voting system so that it isn't possible to have spoiler candidates or "throw away" your vote. Of course it'll probably be 20-30 years before that happens.
- myohmy 5y agoSo the solution to the two party system is to eliminate democracy altogether? I mean, I guess I expect that in 20-30 too...
- lacksconfidence 5y agoIMO the solution is at least releated to ranked choice voting, where people can vote for people that will never win (at least this time around) without their vote becoming meaningless.
- IAmLiterallyAB 5y agoThat's not what they said?? I assume by "change the voting system" they mean to use something like IRV or STAR voting
- shkkmo 5y agoAlaska (my home state) implemented ranked choice voting and open primaries via a ballot initiative. This applies to both state and federal elections.
