Third parties would be okay if we didn’t have a system that allowed someone with less then 50% of the votes to win an election. I think we would be very well off if we changed it so that if no single person got more than 50% +1 vote, then we would immediately have a run off between the top two.

Couldn’t agree more...I’ve been preaching that for years. How much of that Perot vote would have gone to Clinton in 1992?

That would work, but with the current system it’s a disaster, the only thing that saved Chambliss was Georgia law calling for a do-over if under a certain % of votes...
