    This is why some form of multi-select is needed on ballots. Maybe rank the candidates by which is your favorite. Maybe checkboxes for every candidate you’re okay with winning.

      Ranked choice. You basically get 6 votes. Your #1 pick gets 3 votes, your #2 gets 2, your #3 gets 1.

      Just call them points instead of votes. Voting is the action of making your three picks and you’re only allowed to do that once.

      Or just do a normal proportional parliament in which each party gets as many seats relative to how many votes it gets.

      I mean that doesn’t work for Presidential elections, you need Ranked Choice voting for that, but still, having a real democracy for the parliaments instead of FPTP would be much better.
