Ammon Gruwell (United Utah)
We need to reduce political corruption. Although most politicians run for office to make a difference, they work within a corrupt system. In Utah there are no campaign donation limits for state candidates, and over 80% of donations to state candidates come from big special interests. We need to limit what corporate PACs can spend, and amplify the voices of regular people. We can do this by giving every voter $10-20 vouchers to give to candidates of their choice. These candidates can then redeem these vouchers from a state fund. With this reform, the interests of voters would vastly outweigh the interests of big special interests.
We need to make representation more fair. Right now under our winner-take-all system, majority parties take most or all of the seats. This isn't fair for the people not being adequately represented. Most western countries use a system called proportional representation that's really simple: if you win 15% of the vote, you get 15% of the seats. All it takes is electing multiple representatives from each district. This will end gerrymandering, make every vote count, and restore faith in our elections.
