How would more choices make anyone more aware of news? This is just an ignorance issue.

Well if there were more choices, maybe the people that actually give a fuck would vote someone besides red or blue into power.

Oh wait.....

The system is fucked. Let me know when they come up with one that is an actual reflection of what people want, not this electoral college, gerrymandering bullshit. Oh and one that doesn't allow legal insider trading, superpacs, lobbying and spending and unmeasurable sum of money on alien recovery projects, Mk ultra, remote viewing and all of the other things they spend tax payers money on.

How about we just take money out of politics?

Get real.

Besides all of that, if we had a system that actually went off popular vote, maybe the people that come up with backasswards laws like this wouldn't have been in power in the first place.
