ikanreed: How about an system of elections where one group losing doesn't automatically imply victory for exactly one other?
this would require a change in the constitution, therefore, it will never happen.

changes that we would need, and need at the federal constitution level?
1) increase the number of members in the house from 435 to 1600-5300 (200k to 60k citizens per seat)
2) make it trivial for 3rd parties to get on the ballot with a federal law (state parties keep 3rd parties off of a federal ballot? wtf)
3) all elections are vote by mail (only way to be able to recount)
but none of these things will happen. ever. they dilute existing power structures.
