The bipartisan police state everyone. We need to pass electoral reform so we can choose to be free.
Switching away from first past the post voting makes third parties viable and eliminates the spoiler effect. Just search for videos on FPTP voting if you want an explanation on how and why first past the post voting makes third parties not viable.
Electoral reform is possible in each individual state (for now), we dont need federal reform! Maine and Alaska have already passed electoral reform.
So what’s the hold up with the rest of the states? Consider starring a campaign to chanfe how we vote in your own state! Force our representatives to compete with fresh outside ideas. We deserve the best representation, not excuses.
I don't believe voting reform alone will solve the two party problem, since we continue to have single-winner elections. We will need to push through voting reform and add-on some kind of proportional representation (my favorite is Sequential Proportional Approval Voting). Then we'll have a real chance for minor parties to have representation in office, instead of just at the bottom of the ballot box.
