We need ranked choice voting and compulsory voting. The people who could add their votes and make a difference don’t vote because “one vote doesn’t make a difference”. We make voting compulsory and you’re gonna see a lot of people that can’t afford the fine for not voting turn out
Before mandatory voting, first the day of elections needs to be a mandatory day off, with large fines to anything but the most absolute essential emergency services running.
We need a war and a new constitution. Hate to say it, but the countries that the Allies bombed to shit in WW2 and had multinational efforts to rebuild and restructure legally have fared better modifying their guiding documents than the US. We’re hamstrung by poorly defined ideals and the interpretations of some rights while others are written in stone by ideologues.

And you need to stop worshipping a bunch of 18th century slave owners.

Run the elections over two or three days, and require absolutely everyone to be given at least two of them off, no exceptions.
