There are nonpartisan voting reform measures on the ballot in many states during this election cycle. If you live in one of these states, and you haven't voted yet, you still have time to watch our film, Majority Rules. Decide for yourself whether these reforms can incentivize

With America's democratic experiment mired in division and dysfunction, the state of Alaska votes to revolutionize their election system. The surprising results spark new alliances, a growing call...

You can watch the democracy film on which we are executive producers, @MajorityRules24, now! What if nonpartisan electoral reform could change everything?

Now this is interesting… it’s a respected poll. Now, pick your theory/spin: A.) Poll is off. No poll infallible. Weird local IA bump. B.) Race is breaking toward Harris. Not an Iowa only thing; nothing huge and unique has happened to move only Iowa.

One of the things that’s so special about the @jaselzer Iowa Poll is that it forecasts where the race is trending. It’s not the final number, it’s directional. In 2016 and 2020, it raised the red flag for Dems. Kudos to Ann & @Selzer_Co_MY for being the best at what they do.

Great @burgessev story on something I'd missed: a push in a bunch of states, led by Colorado, to kill party primaries

Colorado is one of more than a half-dozen states considering huge voting changes that would pry power away from political parties — and could reshape Congress.

Exciting to see #RankedChoiceVoting on the ballot in so many states but frustrating to see all the misinformation being spread about #RCV by those who put party affiliation before voter power — that mindset needs to change to build a vibrant & representative democracy 🗳️

Do we want to return to a system where the big political parties overwhelmingly controlled Alaskans’ election choices?

Sen. Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska, says she hopes Mary Peltola, a Democrat, is re-elected to Congress. "I’ve appreciated the great work that she has done for the state, and I hope that she’s able to continue that,” Murkowski said. https://t.co/oqFCylr2MA

Sen. Lisa Murkowski endorsed Mary Peltola two years ago, when Peltola was running for her first full-term as Alaska’s sole member of Congress.

Wowza! My dear husband @Rob_Richie is in this great film about #RankedChoiceVoting & #OpenPrimaries in AK -- it's a great movie to watch if you are hungry for solutions to address the polarization & dysfunction that is plaguing our politics.
