I once thought about what would be the best way to fill the seats in a legislative body.
My conclusion was that each person should get to choose up to two people from a randomly shuffled list of candidates.
The list would be 2*N long where N=(num candidates/ num seats).
That way everyone can carefully vet their choice if they so desire without being overwhelmed. Pandering to your base also becomes much less effective, unless perhaps the base is very large.
