    People should be reminded to vote.

    People also need to be reminded that the 2 party system is a policy choice made by Republicans and the Democrats. We can be free to vote how we want. We can have no spoiler effect. We can have a race to the top, not a race to the bottom.

    I hope doing things your way works if yall are truly ride or die on First-past-the-post voting. To continue to try the same thing and expecting different results… maybe it could work. The chance isnt 0%, i will admit that. Its gotta work after all.

    This is where I would usually post videos on the flaws of First-past-the-post voting alongside videos going over alternative voting systems with no spoiler effect.

    Those days have passed us by. Good luck everyone.

      I think the states are going to get to a simple majority vote for president in the foreseeable future.

      STV + MRP is almost a no-brainer for house elections and may even be able to be implemented at the state level without congressional approval. Senate elections are harder IMHO.
