The Ventura County Voting Reform Project. Local volunteers working to implement Ranked Choice Voting and Proportional Representation in our local elections.
Ranked Choice Voting establishes consensus thresholds for victory and rewards candidates that build broad coalitions of support!
If you want to break away from the divisiveness and vitriol of “politics as usual”, then RCV is for you!
Over the weekend, @AuburnU used #RankedChoiceVoting to elect its Homecoming Queen for the first time. Over 9,000 students participated in the vote.
Auburn is also one of about 100 colleges across the country that use RCV for student government elections. https://t.co/Z1d4yGe1kn
@rickhasen Utah should expand their use of Ranked Choice Voting and implement Proportional RCV with multi-member districts instead. They could end gerrymandering and increase the quality of their representative bodies with a single action!
Are you concerned and alarmed about the rise of political violence? So are we. It's a big reason we support #ProportionalRepresentation.

It’s time to eliminate single-member districts and use Proportional Representation to elect our representatives.

"This isn’t a race to the bottom any more; we are there. The congressional map might have its last meaningful races gerrymandered away.
The solutions exist in reforms like #RankedChoiceVoting & #ProportionalRepresentation."

It’s time for better, fairer, more honest elections. Gerrymandering, single-winner districts, and plurality winners discourage competition and limit voters choices.
We can do so much better, but we have to tell our elected leaders that we want change!
Still blows my mind that any serious reform group thinks tinkering with the primary system is a meaningful solution in the year 2025, when it is so obvious that we need proportional representation to deal with the core problem of single-member districts.
Join the Ventura County Voting Reform Project today and sign the Petition to Enact Ranked Choice Voting! (Link in bio.) It doesn’t cost a dime, takes only a moment, and sends a loud, clear message to our elected leaders that you are ready for change!
