There has been a movement for election reform building muscle and strength since the 2000 election, MTed. Because you aren't aware of organizations like Pew Charitable Trusts and their work, doesn't mean it isn't happening. You are just clueless is all.

From the Pew Center on the States:

"electionline.org, a project of the Pew Center on the States, is the nation's only nonpartisan, non-advocacy website providing up-to-the-minute news and analysis on election reform. Established by Pew after the November 2000 vote, electionline has become the leading source for journalists, policymakers, election officials, academics and concerned citizens to learn about, discuss and debate election administration issues."

And then there is the push for instant runoff voting through organizations that introduced legislation in 10 states & got it on the ballot in 17 cities (including mine, where it passed):

Instant runoff voting reforms are supported by the League of Women Voters (remember them?) In fact, even McCain and Obama have said they support such reforms.

But go ahead and try and paint me as the evil fringe flake, MTed.
