So I like this idea a lot, but I feel like there's a fatal flaw in it. Maybe someone here sees a solution. Say I have a population of 80 Indigo people and 20 Chartreuse people. In our current indirect, bipartisan, representative democracy, voters tend to split pretty evenly. It isn't too hard for the candidate to secure 40 Indigo votes each. They have to then build an 11 vote advantage by either smearing their opponent, or by actually catering to Chartreuse needs. There's an antipattern that can emerge where the tactic becomes "scare the bejeebus out of Indigos until they hate and fear Chartreuses enough to vote for you," and that's pretty terrible. In a naïve lottery system, 80 percent of the time you get an Indigo representative, who may be completely oblivious to problems facing the Chartreuse community, or may even benefit from those problems. And that's it. Minorities just get shoved out to the fringe and truly disenfranchised. The current system is busted, and I think the lottery has potential, but it would be hard to implement it fairly.
