Americans Hate The Two-Party Duopoly So Much They Want To Rewrite The Math
Turns out having to choose between two giant political machines every single cycle is finally breaking the country's patience.
A fresh poll shows that Americans are increasingly ready to ditch the traditional winner-take-all voting model. Instead of one district sending one single winner while everyone else's votes vanish, voters are leaning heavily toward proportional representation with multi-member districts.
Under that setup, seats get divvied up based on the actual percentage of votes each party earns. A third-party vote suddenly stops being a fast track to throwing a ballot into an incinerator, and smaller coalitions actually get a seat at the table.
The biggest hurdle to dismantling the two-party monopoly remains the tiny detail that the two parties in charge would have to voluntarily vote away their own monopoly.
