True Democracy! This many people liked it. This many people did not. Everyone is counted.

True Democracy is not DIRECT democracy.

True Democracy means every vote is recorded, not obfuscated by Reddit style nonsense. True Democracy also doesn't involve mail in ballots.

But we're a sort of Democracy. Representative Democracy to be specific.

Pedes in California have their local demands met cause they elect based sheriffs and councilmen. State no, Federally yes. That's the flaws within a Representative Democracy. First past the post is basically the only way to go because each space has it's own candidates.

I would personally like to move to a proportional Democracy rather than first past the post. It would motivate more conservatives to vote in blue states as their votes would still count towards the state's distribution of senators, house members and electors.

This proportionality would also allow a third party to rise more easily. So we could actually launch that .Win party or the Lion party or the Trump party and get into office based on the vote share distribution system.

It would essentially work like this. Each party hands in a list of candidates for the election. The amount of votes they get divided by the total amount of votes gives back a percentage. This percentage is the seats they can fill with their own officials. So 15% of the vote = 15% of the 80 or 40 seats. 12 and 6 respectively.

Now the flaws in this system are obvious. This is a party system and will require compromise. The parties are now what is used to represent people and no longer with the districts, which could still function for local elections.

The best solution I have yet to ever encounter was to simple repeal all this universal suffrage nonsense and make it so only net-taxpayers vote.

I think the future should demand that every vote and voter be recorded together. Not only do they know who voted, they know who voted for whom. That way there's some accountability when it comes to who voted for deceitful destructive politicians and policies and who tried to turn shit around consistently but was always out-voted or... whatever.

I think fraud would be a lot harder. I don't give a fuck about the 'Privacy' factor anymore. I can point to 100 people right now and tell you who they're voting for without speaking to them for a minute and my +- margin of error would be better than a Rasmussen.

I don't agree with that because then we'd have witch hunts of cancel culture in the voting booths. The secret ballot is an integral part of the election system because it allowed many pedes here to be stealth liberals.

"Of course I believe in welfare for illegals!"

Meanwhile inside their head.

"Holy fuck these people are insane better vote for Trump!"

Instead you should be mailed a NAMED AND PERSONAL voting certificate each year and have to hand the certificate to the election official with your ID. One certificate = One vote.

Certs = Vote = No problem. Certs < Votes = Some dead people have been voting Democrat again! Certs > Votes = Some election official fucked up with the ballots again.
