Necessary electoral reforms for the USA

Name: Anonymous 2010-06-17 19:47

The U.S. needs the following electoral reforms:

Unicameral legislatures (abolish the senates) - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unicameralism

Party-list proportional representation for legislative elections - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proportional_representation http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Party-list_proportional_representation

Instant runoff voting for executive elections (mayor, governor, president) -
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instant-runoff_voting

Election of the president solely by the popular vote (abolish the Electoral College).


That is all.

So what you're saying is that all individuals shouldn't have the right to have an opinion regarding bills put forth in a given country's government or the right to assert influence on elected individuals regarding those bills?  If the Congress is supposed to be the "people's house" then the Senate may as well be the "business house."  They're certainly not the "states' house" like they were intended to be, and having another "people's house" is clearly redundant if all it is to do is blindly agree with the Congress.
