Depends what voting system you use. First past the post has lots of problems.
I see people critique STV/ranked choice/etc etc all the time, but I think they tend to forget that FPTP is almost the worst of all systems.

At this point, I'm for just about anything besides FPTP, as long as it has some level of proportional representation.

In a FPTP system the two main parties that thrive on FPTP, as it suppresses minor parties, will always be reliably against it.
