It is known that winner-take-all voting systems promote the formation of two-party political systems. The caucuses naturally formed in this system suppress national discussion of policies and the formation of political parties with precise agendas.
Therefore, all voting bodies shall henceforth adopt the australian preference list voting method. In this method, a ballot shall permit a voter to assign a numbered preference to any or all candidates or issues within a ballot item. When the ballots are processed, the selection with the smallest number of total votes shall be dropped. The voters' highest priority remaining selection shall be recounted, providing an automatic runoff. The automatic runoffs shall repeat until a majority of voters have selected a ballot item.
