As more and more journalists, editorial boards, and supporters add their voices to the conversation about how to improve our democracy, we come closer to achieving the goal of adding Ranked-Choice Voting to our election process.
Check out some of the best pieces from this past week:
- Kristin Eberhardt of Sightline advocates for replacing Oregon and Washington's Winner-take-All System to give voice to more voters.
- The Philadelphia Inquirer Editorial Board highlights FairVote's Top Four Primary proposal with Ranked-Choice voting as a way to improve Primary elections.
- Nobel laureates Eric Maskin and Amartya Sen writes about the value of upholding majority rule in Primary elections with a form of Ranked-Choice voting in a New York Times Oped.
- Advocate John E. Palmer writes in support of structural changes to open up our politics to Third Party Voters in the Independent Voter Network.
- Lori Sturdevant writes how Ranked-Choice voting would have impacted the fractured nature of the GOP Primary race in the Minneapolis Star Tribune.
- Michael Golden, author of Unlock Congress, writes about the merits of FairVote’s Fair Representation plan for Congress in Roll Call.
- Scott Sterling advocates for Ranked-Choice voting, also known as Instant-Runoff voting, in Alaska in the Anchorage Press.
Finally, the Fair Representation Proposal for Congress received a good reception at a Congressional briefing on Capitol Hill on April 22nd with Virginia's (D-8th District) Rep. Don Beyer's office.
