@atthenius @kamalaharrisforpresidentnews @heidilifeldman Few people are well represented in the US, thanks to the absolutely garbage electoral system. There’s a reason 9 of the 10 strongest democracies on earth, and 20 of the 24 “full democracies”, have parliamentary systems.

Source: the Economist Group’s democracy index, in which the US is considered a “flawed democracy” and comes in at 29th on the list.

If you’re wondering what you can do to improve things, I’d suggest (in no particular order), working to promote:
1. adoption of the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact in your state (if they haven’t signed it already)
2. adoption of ranked choice voting at all levels of government
