Ranked choice voting is currently reaching 13 million voters in 52 cities, counties, and states in the United States. Since 2004, there have been over 500 RCV elections in the U.S. with tens of millions of ranked ballots cast.

Push for Ranked Choice Voting and vote Democratic in the meantime! fairvote.org/resources/data-on

I have zero sympathy for democrats who shed crocodile tears about the spoiler effect of Cornel West but don't also vocalize support of Ranked Choice Voting or Star Voting, which would mostly fix the spoiler effect once and for all.

How dare these democrats whine about a serious problem with our election system without simultaneously working to fix it? (Maybe because they profit from their duopolistic power, hmm?)

RCV and Star Voting in the presidential elections is 100% compatible with the US Constitution. The National Popular Vote folks have been working on this for a long time. Many states are already signed up. Let's get this done!

Like poverty, the two party system is NOT a fact of life. It is a human caused problem and it can fixed by humans.

How can a political organization get around pesky financial disclosure requirements? Become a church. A group that opposes ranked choice voting in Alaska founded a church that could have allowed donors to claim tax credits and skirt disclosure requirements. ๐Ÿ˜ก

I'm a huge fan of . Apparently, it's going to be on the ballot in Oregon in November 2024, and will apply to all statewide and federal elections including primaries. It's a huge boost for democracy, as it allows people to move past the party duopoly of Dem/GOP and vote for 3rd party candidates without fear of giving the election away to the greater of 2 evils.

Fun fact, I helped with the campaign to get passed in Benton County, Oregon in 2016.

@Sidlowkid Totes!

In Canada we have about 2/3 of voters centre-left leaning and two main parties represent that (Liberal and NDP). First passed the post splits the vote between them and the conservatives take the seat with 40% or less of the vote.

would prevent a party with less that majority public support having a majority in gov't.

"approval voting can go right into the Charter"

RT @Pat_Christmas
Electoral reform should absolutely be discussed following this election. would require legislation in Harrisburg, as would repealing closed primaries (and allowing indies to vote). But can go right into the Charter...

@politico
Decent article but it pretty much ignored what I see as โ€™s greatest virtue: it negates the โ€œspoiler effectโ€. Imagine having been able to vote for Ralph Nader in 2000 _without_ worrying that you would be helping to elect GWB.

This allows non-duopoly candidates to introduce ideas that otherwise would not be heard, including progressive policies. Like what Bernie Sanders did in 2016 & 2020 but with it can be a regular part of the process.
