I've long suspected that the best election system would use randomness. The thing is we need a whole bunch of great people for parlimentary work. But nobody can know all of them well enough to vote for them. But if every voter was randomly assigned a limited collection of candidates some months ahead of the election, they could make a very well informed vote on those specific candidates. If there are 100 million voters, 1000 parliament seats and 10,000 candidates then every voter could be assigned let's say 20 candidates and 4 votes to distribute among them. With a 50% participation rate you'd get about 100,000 inspections of each candidate which should be more than enough. The best part is that this system completely eliminates personality cults.
