Yep, STAR voting is generally my preferred method, but I do love the simplicity of "in favor of" binary voting as well. Either way, there's loads of improvements over our current system.

The biggest thing is we need to eliminate the need to hold your nose and vote for the lesser of 2 evils. Obviously all republics involve some level of "this candidate is close enough to be my proxy" decision making, but I'm currently stuck voting for someone who was indicted while in office for political crimes because the alternative is worse.

Moving to either system helps break the 2 party system open...which is why nobody in establishment politics is making a big push to get it implemented.
