If the public had a state sponsored race and everyone could run would you go for it?
Maybe? If you thought you were a good runner.
But what if, regardless of how skilled or poor a runner you were the same two runners trade off winning every other race for the past few decades?
Would you still run?
Maybe if you thought you were really good.
What if you all pay the same entry price just to run in the race, but halfway through the race whichever two in are in the lead, who likely will be the ones that always win, are allowed to continue on to the finish line would you still run?
Welcome to the Top Two system in Washington State.
This "Top Two" system has the potential to give voters only two Republicans or two Democrats showing up in the general election. It also will more commonly cripple third parties in the general election because you will have to miracle yourself enough support to knock out the democrats and republicans. Many voters think the general election is the only one that really matters. What do you think?
