I agree with you on almost all points, apart from the line about all the people that voted for HER, I saw something yesterday that showed that the overwhelming number of votes for her Senate run were above the line, which said that people were therefore voting for the party rather than her as an individual.

Interesting point and based on how people talk and vote around me it makes sense, I don't think many people could actually tell you who their senators are.

But again, I agree that the party vote rule is terrible and should be removed.
