[quote Robert M]
Maybe modernizing the electoral college or election system may actually make the party system we have work in properly and give politicians the kick in the butt they richly deserve. Right now, it seems like we have a two party system when that’s not the case because the other smaller parties don’t have a fighting chance against the democraps and repubilishits. It’s be nice to see the big two get some competition.
I agree; it would be nice to see some competition. I'd like to see every politician running for office or reelection in the political fight of their lives. However, I don't see how "fixing" the electoral college will solve this.
I think the real problem is how political districts are gerrymandered. In California, congressional districts really only change hands every ten years, or on a friday the 13th in a leap year when there's a blue moon and a solar eclipse on the same day.
Schwarzenegger was right.
