  1. europesays.com/fr/956752/ Billetterie, merchandising, popularité : comment le RC Vannes entretient la flamme en Pro D2 cette saison, en espérant vite remonter en Top 14 #Actualités #FR #France #ProD2 #RCVannes #RCV #Rugby #RugbyFootball #Sports #Top14 #Vannes

  2. I emailed this to a friend but I want to share it publicly. I am a mathematician and a citizen and as such, I care deeply about the quantitative and geometric aspects of democracy. The nakedly partisan redistricting efforts in the US right now are appalling.

    I've done some reading on interesting, innovative, and fair ways to vote and set up districts...and these politicians are not putting up the slightest pretense at fairness. They're not even talking about democracy. From top to bottom, it's just a game, a fight to win, power to be seized. No talk of citizens or the people. Gerrymandering is the act of politicians choosing their voters instead of the other way around, and here, us voters aren't just being chosen, we're being treated like we're not even owed an explanation. They don't proffer the fimsiest justification. They are sorting us into districts like a farmer might sort cows into different barns.

    It's like the philosophical distinction between lies and bullshit. Liars are aware of truth and reality and care about it, at least to the extent necessary for their lies. But bullshitters don't care about truth at all. Likewise, these gerrymandering pols do not care about truth, democracy, voters, or justification for their actions.

    you're being aspirational, and correct, but you're not announcing *how* to achieve that

    it's like going "arrest #Trump!"

    ok

    and?

    how?

    to get #rankedChoiceVoting, which is creeping in in the #USA, and would allow for stable viable 3rd parties... how?

    we have to elect #Democrats who support that (some do, some don't: vote in the #primaries people!)

    the #GOP has taken a blanket stand against #RCV nationally, so this is the only way forward

  16. @numodular @georgetakei

    the #USA is an #FPTP #voting system

    meaning there can only be 2 parties

    it's not corruption, it's just math (not saying corruption doesn't exist, but even if all corruption magically disappeared, we'd still have only 2 parties)

    a 3rd party on the left would divide the left vote and #MAGA would win

    i want 3rd parties

    to get that we need #rankedChoiceVoting

    to get ranked choice voting, we have to elect #Democrats who support it

    Also, lobby for Ranked Choice Voting / Instant Runoff Voting (RCV / IRV), and educate folks regarding how it works!

    It has the potential to break the two-party stranglehold, thus forcing politicians of all stripes to listen more carefully to voters and work harder at serving the public, rather than simply trying to be the lesser of two evils.
