Stupac, wouldnt it be simpler to adopt the California voting system ( the two candidates with the largest number of votes in the primary meet in the general election, regardless of party) to encourage candidates to aim for the middle to attract voters from the other party. I dont know if there is any evidence yet on how well its working, but in theory it seems like a good response to gerrymandered districts that result in more extreme candidates from the dominant party.
