Yep. Take every seat, make it 15 seats. Ideally we’d have ranked choice and STV. Something like how Australia has a quota system for Senators being elected. People who achieve 1/16th of the votes get a seat, distribute preferences, repeat until all seats are full. |

1. Extreme candidates have very little chance of winning;
2. The system is (formally) fair in the long run; and,
3. It secures the election against tampering from both domestic and foreign actors.
Also, frankly, the sort of person who's good at winning an election is almost diametrically opposite from the sort of person you want as a leader. It's hard to combine "ideologue" with "rational compromise ready actor".
