Elections

=Elections=


 * Elections are very reliable, fair and streamlined in the United States, and there is no publicly known corruption. However, there are a few improvements that need to be made.
 * Elimination of candidates
 * Oftentimes, in federal as well as local elections, votes are thrown away when voting for the third candidate (see below)


 * If Bill and Bob's supporters both vote for their first choice, then Joe will win the election despite the fact that 60% of the population have him as their last choice.
 * The way to solve this is to vote not on who to **//elect//**, but for who to //**eliminate.**// After this, people would vote for who they wanted to elect. this way, the majority of the population is happy. Bill's supporters are happy because someone got elected who has most the same views as Bill. Bob's supporters are happy because, well, Bob got elected. Otherwise, Bob's supporters would be throwing away their votes for him. Now, you might say that's why there's preliminaries and general elections, but what if these three candidates are all in the same party, or if this was a local election? Then, this system would need to be put in place.
 * Mismatched Candidates
 * Some candidates don't fit perfectly into either the democratic of republican parties. The Upwards Party would do away with political parties, (including itself) and make it easier for candidates that don't fit the perfect mold of existing political parties, candidates who have new ideas and want to run for president. If it is easier for these candidates to run, then the US might have a new line of innovative presidents.
