Changing our Voting System

Created by S.N. on February 14, 2016

Our voting system is broken. Thats a fact. Voting is a human right that Americans have to represent themselves, but our system is representative. Three candidates run 1st candidate gets 45%, 2nd Candidate gets 40%, 3rd Candidate gets 15%. No one is getting the majority, but candidate 1 gets the win, is that representative? No its not. Where does the extra 15% percent go? The 2nd candidate could've won if the 15% was given to them. I propose a system where people are allowed to rank their candidates.
