    Having two round elections would pave way to having more than two parties, apparently even that is too hard

      if we had general primaries maybe we could effectively get the ball rolling towards a real voting system

        Jungle primaries have existed in California, Washington and Alaska since at least 2014. You still see a convergence on the two main parties across every level

        I’d rather see proportional representation than waste time fiddling with RCV/instant runoff or nonpartisan primaries.
