- Not to be dismissive or argumentative but I still don't really know who can or how to change the election system we use. - Krusty Jan 25, 09:43 3
  - it depends on what election you're talking about - znufrii Jan 25, 09:48 2
    - I'm talking about Presidential elections. So, it would take a constitutional amendment to get away from the FPTP system we use today? Gotcha. - Krusty Jan 25, 09:50 1
