Let's get to ranked voting also - maybe that is another way to beat the current system. The current system seems to always have one choice: Between the lessor of 2 evils - well at least the last 2 election cycles have been. Obama/Romney, or Obama/McCain had individuals from both sides who were qualified and decent human beings. 2020 - one evil guy and one older fart. 2016 - two evil people 1 Link to comment

Seems legit! It was more tongue in cheek... But I think you've hit on the solution. Whoever controls the voting tally wins! Link to comment
BigRedBuster Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 This could have devastating affects for anyone who wants fair elections and representation. Link to comment
BigRedBuster Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 Boris Johnson resigned less than one week ago and the process of the election is already moving forward. Why can't US elections be much shorter than they are? Link to comment

Only one of those names actively attempted to overthrow Democracy, presided over a pandemic where his political party peddled nonsense during a global pandemic resulting in the unnecessary deaths of hundreds of thousands, and will be known as an international and historical embarrassment. All of that in his last 6 months in office. Let's not act like Hillary or Joe, as annoying as they are, should even remotely be considered in the same ballpark as Trump. 3 2 Link to comment

Well, that's low hanging fruit. My point is that I personally, and many others, have not had a candidate I could get behind for the past 2 Preidential elections. And we see what the Congressional candidate pool looks like...I think it is because of the apathy I linked in the tweet. 1 Link to comment

The last two cycles have been pretty pathetic with the final candidates. 1 Link to comment

This is 100% due to low participation in the primaries, not the general. 3 Link to comment
