What would need to change for US citizens to have more than two choices at election.

I know we technically have more than two choices, but what would need to change for it to simply be 1) person A, 2) person B, or 3) throwaway vote.

And maybe there are multiple avenues?

Moving away from First Past the Post voting; it inevitably leads to two party systems and increased polarization. Plenty of countries use various vote counting/allocation methods, some more complex than others, depending on the outcome they aim for – more representation, more minority representation, ensuring no wasted votes etc etc etc.
