There are several policies that the government could pursue to ensure political equality. First and foremost is regarding the issue of gerrymandering. Republicans, especially in the "red" states often change voting districts so that the end result does not accurate reflect the voter's wishes.
Another policy is reforming lobbying laws. In this current political climate, politicians are much more concerned about special interest.
Another policy is to make election day a national holiday. This ensures that all people who want to vote are able to do so without fear of losing their jobs.
Another policy is to change from a two-party system. As we saw, based on the previous election, the two-party system is flawed.
