Wouldn’t you like to vote FOR someone for a change, instead of picking the lesser of two evils? 

One thing we can do to open up the political process is enact Instant Runoff Voting. 

It works like this: 

When you go to the voting booth, you rank your candidates in the order of preference, 1, 2, and 3.

That’s it! 


When tallying the vote, if no one has a majority or 51%, the person in last place is scratched from the ballot, and if that happened to be your #1 choice, your vote shifts to your #2 selection. 

Then the votes are tallied again and the process repeats until someone has won a majority. 

This would completely eliminate the FEAR component of voting for one person so someone else doesn’t get elected.  The whole ‘Wasting Your Vote’ or ‘They Can’t Win" argument goes away.
