I just came up with a new voting system proposal. It consists of the following: voters would receive a ballot with the list of all the runoffs. A voter then must vote for 1 candidate in each runoff. Third party and major party voters would be treated the same since they both have to vote strategically in runoffs where a candidate from either a third party or major party isn't there. The winner would be the candidate that either wins every runoff or the one with the most points. Allocating points could be 3 points for a runoff victory and 1 for a runoff tie (just like in soccer). Should there be a tie between 2 candidates, the result of the runoff is considered. If the runoff was a tie, a ballot will be chosen at random to determine the winner. What do you guys think?

With my proposal, you don't need to show up many times to vote. The voter would get a ballot with the listed runoffs between 2 candidates and would have to vote for 1 in each of the runoffs.

Instant runoffs would be a good idea. It would save massive amounts of money spent holding multiple elections throughout the election year. I am in favor of instant runoff voting.
