Tennessee Election Changes
A few thoughts on the recent election in Tennessee, and the changes we should make:
Closed Primaries
In Tennessee, we really need closed primaries as long as the media insists on only allowing "2" parties. This would require a person to register in advance as being "Democrat" or "Republican" and only allowing that person to vote in the appropriate primary. This will reduce the incidences of "cross-pollination" polluting the primaries.
Majority Wins
In Tennessee, we really need a law (like many other states currently have) requiring an automatic runoff election between the two top vote-earning candidates if nobody earns at least 50% of the vote. This needs to be instituted in statewide primaries and the general election.
Judges
Judges need to be elected, not appointed. We need to undo the recent state constitutional amendment.
