A true three party system will not likely exist as long as people have only one voting opportunity.
I envision a revision in voting, to the extent that a second voting round happens if the first round did not produce a clear winner, i.e. >50% votes.
For example, recently many feel compelled to vot e third party, but "didn't want to waste their vote". Under my alcohol induced concept, a preliminary voting round would allow many of us the opportunity to actually "vote our conscience", and a subsequent voting round to either seal the deal, or vote 2nd best.
What do y'all think of that?
