  1. Once upon a time American cities like New York and even #Sacramento #California used a super-inclusive, proportional form of #RankChoiceVoting called the Single Transferable Vote. It's basically #RCV with multiple winners in each race. STV was quite successful at representing a wider array of social and political groups in each city. Until the two big parties (and the courts in Sacramento's case) killed it off. But it's making a comeback in cities like #Portland !

  2. @benroyce @deilann @tofugolem @rozeboosje @CptSuperlative I would argue that the problem is the two party primary system where extremists on both sides show up for the primaries leaving the final ballot with only the extremes… and replacing the primary system with rank choice voting on Election Day is the solution

  6. @ShadSterling @QasimRashid #rankchoicevoting? It gets rid of the primaries where the fanatics nominate who’ll be in the ballot, and allows you to protest vote who you really like as well as who’ll you settle for.

  10. CW: US election

    @AndiPopp the election is all about stopping #trump and his #maga… and a reorganization of the #gop from #christifascism and back to fiscal responsibility

    So a vote for a third party candidate is a vote for #trump, #maga, and #christifascists

    I regret voting for Anderson back in 1980. That turned out to be a vote for #reagan

    You will regret voting #3rdparty

    Maybe someday we’ll have #rankchoicevoting, and we can vote our conscience as well as the lesser of two evils

  14. @benroyce hopefully they don’t look back on their vote with 20/20 hindsight and regret as I did back in ‘80, voting for Jon Anderson.

    It is also a case for #rankchoicevoting: you can make your statement but also back it up to do your best to assure that the wrong person doesn’t win.

  19. Spoiler alert: writer goes deep into #mtg territory and is surprised to find very normal people.

    My takeaway: the primaries, filled with radicals, define the election… which is why #rankchoicevoting is so needed (and end the two party system).

    I would love to see more #rankChoiceVoting it sounds like a great way to select people to work in our government that more accurately reflects the kind of folks we want.

    I need to learn more about it and how to make it happen in more places. #MAGA peopoe don't like it so it must be good:-)

    Our work does not end on election day.

    #democracy is more than how we vote!

  28. This election will come down to a few thousand voters in a few battleground states, and that's democracy, folks.

  32. @Wileymiller nobody’s vote should count more than another’s.

    … mostly (but not all) caused by #gerrymandering. It might be easier to make that illegal than an amendment.

    #rankchoicevoting would also help, and rid us of primary elections that tend to put extremists on the general election ballot (who then gerrymander the electorate)
