But we don't need the parties' permission to improve the voting system. If the general public wanted the change, then it would undermine the parties' power, undercutting their relevance, and their protestations wouldn't matter that much.

The problem is that the general public doesn't understand the issue with the voting system.

We see this in response to the use of RCV in Alaska, where so many individuals felt that the outcome was faulty when it delivered results that were better. They didn't understand the system even after it was implemented.

Everything else, including the people controlling the system, hangs on that one issue.
