#RankedChoiceVoting
🧵
We aren't going to have elections run by the U.S. government, and the fact that Trump wants them is all you need to know about why. What we CAN use, however, is minimum federal standards for elections, implemented as soon as the fascists are dislodged.
Elections at every level should use Ranked Choice voting, so every winner has actual majority support from voters.
And when we have ranked choice, there's no reason not to give minor parties equal ballot access.

The important thing to know about ranked choice voting is that Republicans oppose it.

W/o #RankedChoiceVoting #IRV, you simply can't have more than two parties without being a spoiler.
No one loves supporting the "Green" Party more than #Republicans.

With #RankedChoiceVoting, candidates for political office are incentivized to collaborate across campaigns.
When politicians compete for voters' second/third choice votes, they're much more civil with each other, lowering the temp of our politics.
No shade on HRC, Joe or Kamala but Bernie spoke to my dreams of a better country. #RankedChoiceVoting could've prevented the mess we are in today. 💔
people who want more people to understand and advocate for ranked choice voting, which would solve 60 percent of our electoral issues (and their OUTCOMES!) cleanly and easily would absolutely bathe in a pool of stinging wasps to increase awareness

Why do we focus so much on #RankedChoiceVoting?
RCV is one innovative solution among many that upgrade our democracy for the twenty-first century. We focus on it because we believe it's the first step to fixing politics.
What @thedaveabbitt.bsky.social@bsky.brid.gy said 👇. Also, we need to restore principled, effective, and accountable leadership and get money out of politics. #RankedChoiceVoting would be a huge step toward that.

What is Ranked Choice Voting?
If you voted for Donald Trump under the belief that he would increase 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 freedom (fortunately, I did not), it's safe to say that you were gravely mistaken. At least there was one candidate who seemed to genuinely care, despite his own party's leaders hating him—a long shot named Chase Oliver. Too bad we still do not have ranked-choice voting.

@Powerfromspace1 @iWillNotBeSilenced
its mistake is failing to predict the power of political parties to override the separation of powers. that having to win a primary means the influence of a president can pressure most Congress critters of their party into going along with anything.
Keeping our electeds from violating the law is not supposed to require that enough of them are members of the other party. It obviously should for passing laws, but not maintaining the lawful structure of the government. End the duopoly.
