“A bipartisan group of Wisconsin lawmakers proposed a new kind of election system for Congressional races on Friday, arguing that the state’s existing system exacerbates partisanship and discourages compromise,” NBC News reports.
“Currently in Wisconsin, the winners of party primaries compete in the general election. This bill proposes switching to ‘Final-Five’ voting, which would require nonpartisan, single-ballot primaries in federal races. The top five candidates would then proceed to the general election, where voters would vote on ranked-choice ballots to determine a winner through an instant runoff.”
