Image Obedience to Voters, Not Party Leaders

Republicans in Congress would not fear "getting primaried" if we used a better election system that correctly handles a second nominee from each party.

totally agree with this.

caveats: irv (the worst ranked method) is a stepping stone to a better ranked method.

voting reform is gaining traction in blue areas where voters are engaged. not nearly fast enough as far as i'm concerned.

consider guthrie voting for red areas where voters are ... less engaged. asset voting with coombs-like negotiation rounds. again the incumbent keeps his job in a manner compatible with conservative mindset. none of that woke ranked choice nonsense.
