Imagine you had two candidates you really liked and they both ran against Trump in a 3 way race. Oh no! Vote splitting Trump could win easy.
But if we #Starvote you could vote 5 for one of them and 4 for the other with no fear. The person who comes in last is removed. Let's say that's your 5 vote. Now your 4 vote counts full vote in the instant run off between the top 2. Works well with four candidates. Think of how polite, appealing and accurate those four would be if we could rank 0-5 #reform

#demographics are shifting #Blue ? I hope it's not a timid tweaks kind of moment of dominance. The imperative to fundamentally improve a system you've just won control of wanes in an instant. Overcoming opposition is just the start. What is done with #power is where the positive potential is. Changing the label color of the capital interest boot lickers does little. Demand systemic change for healthy democracy dynamics. Insulate government from corp money. Abandon #duopoly #Starvote #democrats

@ZhiZhu @Noupside I wonder if #WaPost will respond? As much as we desperately need multiple parties in #uspol (to reign in our “aisle” talk) I think you’re right about their mistake here.
