Instant runoff voting edit

I see that you support 3rd Parties, which indicates to me that you would support fair voting reform. (Lol, you're the first person I've seen support Bernie, Jill, AND Johnson. Interesting. I'm supporting IRV specifically for 3rd Parties.)

The Wikipage: Instant-runoff voting.

For the group fighting for it, check out: http://www.FairVote.org.

To see why it's necessary, check out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wqblOq8BmgM.

It's supported by the Green Party: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eb7MQ7da6sg.

Suggestions:

  • Share on Facebook
  • Twitter
  • Everywhere
  • Post a sign in your front yard that says, "The USA needs Instant-Runoff Voting!"

Sounds great! My other main political reform cause is open primaries in all elections. I've written several reports advocating it as a way to disincentivize pandering to the extreme wings of a party. Eventually I would love to see parties abolished, in the meantime I'm working on ending the duopoly by getting the Libertarians to ≥5% and major party status (inc. federal funding).

Hi Gsnerd. Are you happy for me to keep adding articles to the end of the list? DH85868993 (talk) 10:22, 13 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

Hi DH85868993, thank you for your consideration! Please feel free to add articles to the list, and may I assume it is fine to remove articles from the beginning that I have verified? Gsnerd (talk) 19:00, 14 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

Yes, feel free to remove articles that you have verified. DH85868993 (talk) 21:04, 15 January 2017 (UTC)Reply
