Here’s a better proposal: add none of the above to every ballot. If a super majority (say 80%) pick that the election is an automatic do-over and the people on the ballot can’t run for a period of say five years.

A couple cycles of this will flush the crap out of the system.



Ranked choice voting allows for instant run off elections. Should have a similar effect without requiring a full redo of the election.


"No Confidence" vote option exists in some countries.
