The week before the election should be called "Fkin Election Week" and include a significant amount of election coverage. There would be required debates involving more than just the Democratic and Republican candidates and shows where the candidates come on and just state their opinion on a number of issues. Hopefully some networks would pick it up, but at the very least PBS can show it.
Obviously people who are very concerned with politics will do their research into the various candidates, but I still feel like a lot of voters are not as informed as they could/should be. It would also give some exposure to third party candidates who don't have the $$$ to run hundreds of tv ads every day.
Second, I'd like to try something like Instant Runoff Voting, so people could vote for who they actually like the most without worrying that they have thrown their vote away, rather than the lesser of two D&R evils.
