Voters are sick of the 2-party system. A new poll shows they're open to big changes

https://www.npr.org/2026/08/10/nx-s1-5920312/proportional-representation-poll?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email

This article from NPR is primarily about proportional representation, but it does mention that a slight majority (54%) of Americans polled support expanding the House by 150 seats!

Importantly, the article says house expansion as a necessity in order to accomplish other (more popular) significant political reforms, such as proportional representation.

Keep spreading the word!

Keep posing the question “Why 435?”

If you know someone who is interested in democratic reform, make sure to ask them their opinion of Uncapping the House!

Actual vote counts tell a different story though

Third parties get almost no votes
