"Wyoming’s bill has the potential to be the next great innovation in American government. PR could improve the representative nature of our state governments and allow voters to express their preferences more effectively on local issues. While there is no one-size-fits-all solution for a country as large as the U.S., other states would be wise to learn from Wyoming’s foray into this promising territory."
If #Wyoming gets #ProportionalRepresentation before #California we're going to flip out. Still cool though. #LaboratoriesOfDemocracy #ElectionReform

Great interview with our friends at More Equitable Democracy about election reform. "Too many times we have seen top-down campaigns. Some politically savvy organization says, 'This is the right solution. How do we get people of color on board? Let's hire an outreach person!' People of color are not stupid, and they want to be part of the decisions being made. "

#US politics in a nutshell.
If #Americans want to prevent another #Trump, stop accepting the status quo and open your eyes to the two parties who hold control.
They switch sides when it suits them:
°Abolishment of #slaveryThey both support and fund #Genocide
°#IsrealPretending to be anti empire:
°Illegal annexation of #HawaiiThey claimed to support #democracy
°Funded the #Pinochet dictatorshipDemand change:
°Multi party #coalitions

Why do David Eby’s freshly re-elected BCNDP, whose Health Minister swiftly promised my BCED K-12 wife Novavax availability in the election lead up months ago, now refuse to even respond to her emails?
Must we join Elon’s right wing hate site just to communicate with our out of touch BC govt!?
Politicians like David Eby deflate the BCNDP’s legitimacy by making false promises like this in an attempt to mislead voters.
Does Eby think we voted BCNDP because we enjoy having to beg the apathetic Bonnie Henry and Adrian Dix for basic means of covid mitigation?
David Eby’s campaign clearly lied to us about providing Novavax access (just as John Horgan’s BCNDP feigned support for TMX opposition in the 2016 election) simply to steal our votes. As soon as they have them, they toss our concerns aside and abandon us.
Power corrupts, and re-elected govts often forget that those whose voted them back in, did so for good reasons. To ignore those reasons is to ignore our democratic voices.
ALL in BC should have equal access to covid vaccines. Pfizer is not an viable option for many vulnerable.
Those who must take Novavax for health reasons should not be, yet again, abandoned by Bonnie Henry’s BCNDP.
We demand access to Novavax now or Eby and his cronies can expect a landslide Conservative win next election in BC.
All my future votes in this province will go to the Greens regardless of threat from the magaCons.
I just cannot continue wasting my vote on this flip flopping, out of touch BCNDP.
They ignore covid, they ignore long covid, they ignore Novavax requests from teachers, they ignore covid transmission in hospitals, they ignore the societal damage this unmitigated pandemic is reeking on our schools and communities.
All of us abandoned to a virus by their well paid, capitalist, economy focused health officials.
This BCNDP govt has embraced societal sickness and now refuses to provide viable vaccine options. Disgraceful politicking. Vote them out.

‘Labour must be bold on political reform beyond it’s own self-interest if we are to have a properly functioning democracy’
The Labour membership wants #ProportionalRepresentation. What about the leadership?

There is a way to oust the Tories, and stop them ever rising again. Why won’t we do it?
Now the dust has settled on the local elections, count the rightwing votes and then the progressive ones, and see why PR is more vital than ever
