THE PROBLEM

Our voting system is tearing us apart.

It prevents us from working together to tackle the real challenges our communities face.

GRIDLOCK

Year after year, gridlock in statehouses and in Congress gets worse. Our communities fight for crucial legislation, and it goes nowhere.

POLARIZATION

From the dinner table to the national news, we feel fractured. And it seems like many of our elected officials are only fighting for one team, not our communities. Rather than find middle ground, politicians pander to the fringes. 

NEGATIVITY

Because voters can only choose one candidate, politicians do everything they can to attack their opponent in order to win votes. Going low has become the norm.

Americans are experiencing record levels of frustration. Most eligible voters don’t go to the polls. We are more divided than ever. The good news: there are simple changes we can make that would help to bring Americans together again.

OUR PROVEN SOLUTIONS

Innovative reforms likeRanked Choice Voting,
Proportional Representation, Fair Maps, and Open Primaries give a strong voice to all voters in our elections, and ensure the most representative candidates with the broadest support get to govern.

Ranked Choice Voting >>

Every voter should have the freedom to support the candidates they truly like, without fear of wasting their vote or helping elect someone they don’t. Ranked Choice Voting lets you vote your heart and your head. Rank candidates in order – 1, 2, 3 – and if your favorite can’t win, your vote still counts. More choice, less drama, better results.

Proportional Representation >>

Imagine a government that looks like our communities, not just two rival camps shouting past each other. Proportional Representation makes every vote count toward seats in government, so diverse voices – urban, rural, left, right, and everything in between – get a real seat at the table.

Fair Maps >>

Politicians shouldn’t get to pick their voters. Yet that’s what gerrymandering does – twisting maps to keep them safe in power. Fair districts mean fair play: voters choose their leaders, not the other way around. Democracy shouldn’t come with cheat codes.

Open Primaries >>

Why should a tiny slice of voters decide who’s on your ballot? Open primaries invite everyone to the party – every voter, every candidate, one ballot. When all voices are heard from the start, we get leaders who actually represent the whole community.

LET'S COME TOGETHER

Ranked Choice Voting, Proportional Representation, Fair Maps, and Open Primaries are simple changes we need to get America back on track.
