In a semi-open ballot system, voters would see electoral lists and be able to select "preferred candidates" when they vote. This commons sense reform would strengthen democracy, allowing for a fuller expression of voter preferences and an increased connection between voters and their elected officials.

The work of civilian defense squads serves a real security need and bolsters the functioning of the police. But an incident from the Israel-Iran war reminds us that, even in an emergency, they are still subject to the law and must still operate within the limits and frameworks set for them by the police.
