>If instead we voted with permutations of {+1, +0.5, -0.5} assigned to a single combination of up to 3 candidates without duplication of score or candidate, we would be voting for the outcome of the decision matrix and avoiding the tragedy of the commons.

Sorry, but you have to work with the system you have, not the system you want.

If more people showed up to vote, Republicans would have no power.

The only good path forward is to elect Democrats and then push them further left. Anything else is fantasy.
