    I'd take this very simple improvement. Unlimited candidates running against each other. Top 2 have a runoff.https://twitter.com/BernButtDegnan/status/885929038933635073 …

    Should be the same as France, initial vote then runoff. Works the best that way.

        I'd limited the primaries to two months. General election to two months. It doesn't need to be a such a long process.

        It should be on Saturday or a national holiday too. That way more people can get to the polls.

        Except it would still be all about the money. Whoever has the most is likely to rise to the top spots.

        Our system is designed so that only people with money run. Dems and Repubs are full of it

        Washington state has a top two primary system, which is similar. Needs to happen nationally. https://wei.sos.wa.gov/agency/osos/en/voters/Pages/top_2_primary.aspx …

        Just use preferential voting system. Would end in same result without the expense and inconvenience of running two elections
