Break Up the Two-Party System: Lee Drutman
We discuss how two parties alone cannot represent the diversity of views in American society, how fusion voting could solve for better representation, and who exactly should get engaged in our civic lives.

His civic action toolkit recommendations are:\xa0
1. Support political parties and reforms that create more choices.
2. Be a good neighbor and participate in a local meeting.
