      This sounds great and all but governance is a skill and if we keep removing people who have expertise in it we end up with a country run by amateurs.https://twitter.com/Phil_Lewis_/status/1312603396231360513 …

      Replying to @MarkHoofnagle

      I used to agree heartily with you, but then I had a state senator whom I loathed, a far right wing nutjob who evolved into an antivaxxer and 5G conspiracy theorist, and I was so glad that he was term limited in 2018 and couldn't run again for his seat. So now I'm torn on this.

      Replying to @gorskon @MarkHoofnagle

      Ppl who voted for a nutcase will vote for another nutcase. Ending gerrymandering & introducing instant run-off voting for primary & general elections wd make them more competitive & thus less likely that a seat would be held by the same for as long, without eliminating experience

      Replying to @bashingon @gorskon

      I agree. The problem is the antidemocratic kluge of gerrymandering, campaign cash/citizens united, the filibuster, and lifelong *nondemocratic* appts like judges.

      Yes and no. In 2018, we replaced all the @MIGOP hacks in my district with @TheDemocrats, including the incumbent state representative, who was nowhere near his term limit.
