In the United States voting is done at the state level. As such this is something many of us are working on, many of us have voters sponsored ballot initiatives where enough votes can get an issue on a ballot for an up or down vote, it is how we legalize marijuana. Anyway we have one of those coming up here in Michigan and other states for ranked Choice voting.
The United States is a shit show though, too little too late I fear.
I actually think we could take the country in 2028 if we organized. Outside of traditional social media, maybe on some new Federated social media not run by douchebags which may or may not control many of these forums. With a slate of populist candidates offering real reform, a new deal, we could trounce whomever is going to replace the president in the next election. But after that? The fix will be in completely. The fix is already in in many ways but we could still overcome it with an overwhelmingly popular mandate. Not with Gavin newsom.

I hope it will matter; I agree, this is something that should have happened decades ago really.
I believe it is still worth pursuing on the off chance that the right somehow fumbles their plans again like they did in 2020.
