I agree that the Parliamentary system is better, but we would first need to abandon the #ElectoralSystem which would nearly require a miracle and/or war to create a new set of govt rules. What is the catalyst that will bring about this change? It took the US almost 350 yrs to allow blk ppl to vote.
Everything I used to understand about the #USA #electoralsystem I learned from #thewestwing. I’m streaming it again, I wish we could go back to #biden normal or #obama normal so it works like it is supposed to. 😟

Electoral accountability is key! 🗳️ As @jrdresden.bsky.social from @protectdemocracy.org explains, #FusionVoting and #ProportionalRepresentation can reform the system and push parties toward more responsible roles. It's time to rethink our #ElectoralSystem!
What does it say about America when the govmt body is run like the mafia?
Let's bring the electoral system to the forefront of the political discussion because there's no use in screaming 'you elected a rapist/felon' etc. It clearly doesn't matter to some folks.

A win by #Biden in #November is less of a win for #Democracy and more like that last gasp of air when you’re drowning and struggling to keep yourself at the surface. The #Electoralsystem *IS* #Broken and needs urgent repairs. #Trump and the #GOP will try to make sure it stays broken for good.
