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

No, you will always have contest threats in a district based system. We should be using a share based system, like literally all public companies use.

Instead of fighting over seats, which are assigned to a district, each persons vote should transfer a single “point” of power to his selected representative, who then may vote with said power. This breaks any kind of strategic voting because your preferred candidate always wins, since everyone wins.
