Comment on We should have elections with no candidates.
tunetardis@lemmy.ca 1 week agoI tried one of those surveys before the last election, and it concluded that I was most closely aligned with the Green Party. Alas, they don’t have a chance in Hell where I am. They are so far off the radar I wasn’t even aware they were fielding a candidate in my district. But it does make me wonder though. If such surveys actually informed how people vote, would the balance of power shift? I think it would help if our voting system (I’m in Canada) changed to something other than first-past-the-post?

Moving away from FPTP is, for democracy, the crucial first step that very few seem to have taken.
