@BidensWins I would do that, except I won’t vote for either Democrats or Republicans and I would like to see open voting, giving a choice and does it support third-party candidates.

Plurality voting is archaic, incentivizes candidates to bully each other and punishes voters who vote their conscience. #RankedChoiceVoting is the upgrade we need. Here's what @AndrewYang had to say about it:
@AndrewYang There is already a great third party but has been held back by the corporate duopoly. As some have already said, without electoral reform, it is not possible to make an impact. BTW, if I voted for Democrats I would’ve voted for you but I don’t for the Democrats.
Occassional come-from-behind wins show that ranked choice voting is working. It means that the winning candidate built a broad coalition of voters, and that voters' voices are being heard 👂
I stand with Shaun King. I've seen him do amazing activism for African-Americans in this country and I've seen him help get progressive prosecutors elected, which led to actual reform! I've almost never seen his critics do shit but complain about other people's accomplishments.
Bad news for single payer prospects. With Biden and Dems controlling Congress, liberals in the House are in retreat. Bernie Sanders hasn't even introduced his bill this year. Corporate giants keep hiking premiums, co-pays, prices, and demanding huge govt subsidies and tax breaks.
Julian Assange turns 50 today. We stand with him on his birthday and urgently call for his immediately release and for the extradition request by the US government to be withdrawn #FreeAssange
As the US celebrates it's independence, we should be talking about the right to self determination and independence for the US territories, which lack basic representation and rights. We can start w/ abolishing the Jones Act & letting these territories determine their own future.
