The electoral reforms would certainly help, but you risk the Trudeau effect of a candidate running on them, then getting in office and saying, “Well, it can’t be that broken if I still managed to win.”
Alaska is an interesting place, politically. Last I knew, the major parties there were Libertarian Republicans and the Green Party. I’m not surprised they have a different voting system.
Prob because they were once Russian territory, they have Russian pluralism. Or maybe not.
That’s insightful. Never thought about that.
