Who exactly is running the country while you have successive elections that don’t net a winner? After each election failure do we have another primary? Do you have any idea how expensive it is for municipalities to hold elections?
To be clear, the highest midterm voter turnout was 49% in 2018. So if literally everyone who voted had voted for the same candidate, the candidate who received 100% of the vote would lose; under your system, no one would ever win.
Even in 2020, only 66% of eligible voters turned out. It’s unlikely any presidential candidate could win given those turnout numbers.
Not trying to be rude, but this might be the stupidest idea I’ve ever heard. You’d literally bring government to a screeching halt because no one could get elected.
