Inspired by a comment I saw in a comment field, here's the idea:
Why not give each voter, for example, either
- multiple votes (say, 10)
- the ability to portion out their one vote in percentages (55% for this party, 43% for that party and 2% for this one)
Wouldn't this give a more balanced vote, since you now (typically) don't have to chose between one party (or candidate) or the other?
As someone who can't really agree with any one existing political party, this seems really appealing (as opposed to founding my own party from scratch, or whatever).
(this seems to be the relevant Wikipedia article on the subject)
