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.

How is this wrong? If 80% of voters vote for something it should happen. It shouldn't matter if those voters all live in one state or even a small section of one state. Elections and voting is done according to population, not to land area. Fuck the senate.
