Why American Elections are Flawed, and How to Fix Them

Establishment Democrats like Clinton agree with: 1, 2, 3, half of 4, 7, 8, 10, 13

Disagree with: other half of 4, probably 11

Republicans agree with: half of 2, 3, half of 4

Republicans disagree with: 1, other half of 2, 3, other half of 4, 7, 8, 10, 14

Toss-ups, non-issues, and uselessly vague include 5, 6, 9, 11, and 12.

I dunno, it seems pretty clear-cut to me.

I completely don't agree with your "question redistricting". I'm voting for a person not a party.

For example, 3 is solidly not Hillary. Speakers she had at the DNC, tweets after Dallas shooting, on and on.

Trump is 100% pro-lgbt and has never been a christian, so 14 isn't him.

Trump also is for legalizing medicinal and letting states determine recreational, so 7 is him, not her (have a strong sense from things she's written that she won't legalize).

And the ones you earmarked as toss-ups etc are more him. They also are VERY important to ME, so not the non-issues you paint them as.

There's a few others like this. But I have to go.
