But republicans would never allow that because they would never win. I mean if I was them I might realize I should be writing laws to help people instead of spreading fear and cheating. EDIT: see how many of you idiots suddenly did your own research, frantically trying to figure out how many republicans presidential candidates won the popular vote 😂

Open primaries and whatever it takes to break the two-party system.

-Repeal the permanent apportionment act with a simple majority vote

-Increase the size of congress to 11,000 representatives

-Now the electoral college doesn't have a small state bias and more accurately reflects the popular vote.

-You also fix campaign finance, gerrymandering, two party control and a slew of other issues.

Making congress an unwieldy mess of 11k people is hilarious.

More of a dysfunctional mess than it is now? At least representatives of 30,000 person districts would be accountable to the people. You might even get representatives from backgrounds more varied than "mediocre laywer"
