Yo dude.
Worried about malicious interest groups funding 3rd parties? When we pass state level electoral reform, people would be able to vote how they wish, secure in the knowledge that their vote would still be counted should their number 1 preference not win.
I encourage you stop by my ask lemmy Post to discuss your post election commitment to replace FPTP voting in your state.
Then we wouldn't have to worry about buffs or debuffs at all.
If it's "probably impossible" then can you explain why Alaska and Maine have already been successful implementing electoral reform? Why are several states working towards getting rid of First Past The Post voting right now?
It's not impossible. This reform is possible at the state level. We don't need an act of God from congress to make this happen. It's already happening, and it can happen in your state to!
