  19. Great meeting about SB2004 with State Senator Laura Ellman of the 21st State Senate District (which covers much of Naperville, Lisle, Butterfield, Glen Ellyn, and Lombard)! Lots of positive energy around local RCV in our State Senate! We are working hard to add co-sponsors to SB2004 so that local IL municipalities can implement RCV referendums if they choose to do so!

  20. 3 cities have passed RCV in IL, but implementation is stalled by legal uncertainty. In the meantime, State Senator Laura Murphy has introduced SB2004, legislation that would provide clarity to clerks in cities seeking to try out RCV for their local elections. Visit the link in bio to contact your state senator urging them to support SB2004 so that Illinois municipalities can implement RCV!

  23. With as many as 18 candidates in the Democratic primary for IL-09, it is clear that Illinois desperately needs ranked choice voting for its primary elections. This race could theoretically be won by a candidate with as little as 5.56% of the vote due to vote splitting. RCV would require the winning candidate to have a true majority of >50%, all while mitigating the problems of "spoilers" and "vote splitting."

  24. Ranked choice voting would move us beyond just having two choices when we go to vote. In order to have consent of the governed, people must be able to have real choice in who their leaders are.

    Real democracy requires real, meaningful, competitive choices. Go to fairvoteillinois.org/statewide or click the link in bio to RSVP for our Statewide Meeting on Saturday, December 13 at 10AM!

  26. 🗞 Evanston Roundtable: "[The City of Evanston] is preparing to join a refiled lawsuit aimed at compelling the Cook County Clerk's Office to actually implement [ranked choice voting]." The legally binding November 2022 referendum "passed decisively with over 82% support."

  28. #RankedChoiceVoting would save Chicago millions of 💸 by eliminating the need for runoff elections. The 2023 Mayoral runoff cost ~$20M, and $10s of Ms more in campaign costs. Comment below: What would be a better use of that $$$? 🤔

  32. Ranked choice voting would save Chicago taxpayers TENS OF MILLIONS of $ while giving voters more choices and more power. We're working with the city council to introduce legislation to let us vote on whether to adopt RCV.

  33. #3GoodThingsToday #3goodthings #ThreeGoodThings

    I like to post a few #reasonstobecheerful to spread a bit of positivity - maybe give someone a smile or remind them of a good thing in their week 😜. Without further ado...

    1. June 1 ☀️ came and went (official start of the Atlantic basin hurricane 🌀 season) and for the first time in my life aside from a few years in university 🏫, I'm not living on the Gulf of Mexico. After evacuating 🧳for Hurricane Helene last year, I sat in a hotel room in Pittsburgh, watching the storm tear up the coast ⛱️ and I made myself a promise: I was going to move and never experience this again. Within 4 months I had an out of state job offer. I did it. I left. I'm still very proud 🦚 of that.

    2. My morning 🌅 train ride 🚆 was something out of a painting 🎨🖌️. The sun 🌞 was beaming and the city was awash in soft light. It was the kind of view that made me stop scrolling 📲 and just look out the window.

    3. Went to a meeting 🤝 in support of HB3853 - The Protective Medical Equipment Freedom Act 😷. This bill 🧾will enshrine the right to wear medical masks and other protective medical equipment for Illinoisans. #Illinois #illinoispolitics #chicagoland
