In your opinion, what is the most urgently needed electoral reform in America today?

[Pericles]

Eliminating gerrymandering would probably have more of a positive impact than making presidential elections decided by popular vote. Even the basic step of having independent redistricting commissions decide all of the lines would empower voters and gradually reduce polarization and extremism in government. A truly transformative reform would be to have the House elected with a different electoral system, my ideal would be MMP like New Zealand has. So half the House are local electorate representatives, and the others are from the party list. This would ensure proportionality and so legitimacy more than any other system, and it would break the two party duopoly and empower the entire electorate. It would be a refreshing positive change, certainly NZ politics has moderated since we ditched FPP, and as an added bonus it would likely provide more diversity in government.
