The USA voting system came from the haudenasaunee alliance in the northeastern area.  Before entering, people calmed themselves, so as to have no harm in their words.  Their meetings for decisions started with shared value for everything anybody held as important, and then went in a circle such that everyone could speak.

        I listen to everything you and anybody else says. And I reply to it. It's called 'dialogue'.

        I listened to your comments on US 'democracy' and I correctly replied that you know nothing about it. Now I'm listening to you trying to change the subject. But don't worry about me being 'upset'. Go back to your claim and argue it.

        "Long ago, we had democracy"

        Was that when the blacks were kept in the plantations?

        "all the votes were pretty much landslides"

        for instance?
