First Past the post voting is mathematically flawed and will always result in a two party system. With a more representative electoral system, people would be free to vote outside the two party system while still counting their vote against those they don’t want in office.

Passing electoral reform doesn’t need to happen at the federal level. The states are in control over how they tally votes. In fact, some states have already passed electoral reform. Alaska chose a more moderate conservative over Sarah Palin because of Ranked Choice voting

Given how democrats profess their devotion towards preserving democracy, you would think that in every blue state they would have passed this very much needed reform. It’s not that Democrats dont understand the flaws in First Past the Post voting. Feel free to browse any post about the green party for a very public display of their understanding of this issue.

Republicans understand this as well, which is why they are beginning to pass legislation to protect FPTP voting in states they control. Why does the democratic party want to use the same voting system republicans prefer? Wouldn’t you think that’s a ultragigagigantic red flag? I certainly do.

No spoiler effect, more democracy, more people involved in the political process, more then one chance to defeat the republicans, and giving republicans a chance to vote for a more moderate conservative party. Changing how we vote is a win win win win scenario.

Except for the legacy political parties of course, as they would now have to compete for your vote. Perhaps both mainstream political parties would rather see the nation state shattered then to have to do so.
