Are you familiar with something called 'Preferential Voting'? In Alaska, it's being debated.
It's the concept of voting on one's preferences- Your number one choice, your number two choice, etc. At counting up time, the candidates's votes get augmented or diminished by the numbers progressing down the list.
There is one state using the system- I forget which- and I remember reading that another state tried it and has gone back to the usual method.Ebbie
