I tried searching democrats.org for Ranked Choice voting and didn't get any hits. Can you share the information you have?

How can you discuss the flaws of First past the post and NOT want to change the voting system?

IMO, the solutionis changing how we vote so the disenfranchised are encouraged to participate. More voters equals more democratic votes. So why arent democrats taking these easy votes? All it takes is passing electoral reform in the states they control.

We don't need to wait for the Republicans to stop existing before we get representation in exchange for our votes. With a more representative electoral system like Ranked Choice voting, people would be free to vote for those that best represents them, secure in the knowledge that their vote would still be counted even if their preference didn't win. Still counted against the republicans.

You see, we can have democracy and freedom at the same time. How we vote is controlled at the state level, so we should be able to make these changes in blue states where republicans have less influence.

Unless of course, the democrats in power in those blue states aren't interested in democracy.

We could unite over democracy right?

We should help work towards passing electoral reform in each of our states. Then you can put all those people upset with the democrats into the game. Let them to participate in the electoral process.

More people voting means more democratic votes. Don't you want more votes for the democratic party?

Why do you need the freedom of speech to write this comment?
