This. I think they could look at our system and I don’t mind if they copy it. It would be good for them.

The US is a federation where each state is given the (constitutional) right to run their own electoral process. I’m not sure that a federally run system would ever fly there, but I think that fifty independent redistricting commissions would be a huge win for electoral politics in general.

Each state in Australia also has its own Electoral Commission. As a system, it works well.

And federal elections are run by the Australian Electoral Commission, one system for the whole country for federal elections, no tinkering or sleight-of-hand by States.
