without ranked-choice voting a third candidate usually does nothing more than to split the majority vote allowing a minority supported candidate to win.
Yes

this is called ["push poll"]( \--its rather a political marketing strategy than a real poll. its set to change public opinions and make them vote for the candidate who is polling high in the push poll.

this is all fine and good except for 2 things: 1- nothing has changed ot will for the 2020 election as far as the electronic baloots. 2- the dnc still runs the show. if they dont want bernie for a candidate then guess what's going to happen? yeppers--they will not nominate him. thats why bernie has essentially fucked h...

imo this is all just pr for these companies. if they want to make a difference, do it with their mountains of $$. they push for or against legislation when it benefits their bottom line to do so. actions speak louder than words and corporate $$ enacts more change than individual sentiment. if they truly want to support...

so the argument here is that the state is making it easier for predominantly democratic voters to vote, easing their burden and granting them convenience, without doing so uniformly throughout the state.
Yes

barring major shenanigans on the part of the dnc, the 2020 election is over. trump has it in the bag.

you say "vote blue" and to a longstanding conservative, that's pretty threatening looking and i understand why. i'm voting blue, yes. so don't worry. but i wish i still lived in a democracy.
Yes

i think we can all agree that the voting process was just a fun way to engage with our favorite characters and they all brought something special to the show. 9 - 9!!

do these kinds of election finance reform do anything to stop people from out-advertising their opponents simple by being rich in the first place, or benefiting from fake news campaigns like “ontario proud” which overtly bundle together private money from special interests?
Yes
1
really? when you point to the fact that 1 in 10 2016 bernie voters voted for trump in the general, they say that was disillusioned voters looking for a change candidate. so people think those voters would stay with bernie if he is the nominee. i still doubt that will happen.
Yes

this is really my point about electoral reform - big ideas with little or no care as to how they would work in practice.

this initiated bill provides ranked-choice voting for the offices of united states senator, united states representative to congress, governor, state senator and state representative for elections held on or after january 1, 2018. ranked-choice voting is a method of casting and tabulating votes in which voters rank can...

i say it often, but can't say it enough. get the word out, pester your friends, vote. we need to send a message that is very loud and very clear that america values more than corporate profits. i don't mean to sound overdramatic but this election truly is the most important that i imagine many of us will ever see in ou...

i have literally not said anything against what you are saying. stop being hostile towards people that are on your side. vote blue, duh; but also push for the reform of systems that actively give the fascist side of the country more power. call out the racists and "christian reich" of the country before they burn this ...
Yes

so please vote for her, democrats wont, but you can.
Yes

even if this poll is an outlier, it absolutely destroys the narrative that biden is the runaway favorite to win. i honestly have considered him our biggest threat, so that in itself is a win.

100% right. jimmy carter is often overlooked but i find him to be the sterling example of the cincinnatus from the plow, the noblest of men and was a fine president at a terrible time. and hegot shafted on the iranian hostage who released them only when ronald reagan neocon was installed. jimmy carter had put us on a p...

why not all of it? personally i feel voting is bit limited. again, this is capitalist society. the more responsible consumers we have, the bigger impact we can have against shady ass corporations. we've been trying your suggestion since the beginning, and it hasn't got us very far, at all. it's time to make stances aga...

no part of the steele dossier was used to bring in mueller. that was 100% because trump fired comey then bragged to the russians that he got rid of him to stop the russia investigation. not the trump investigation, but the fbi investigation into russians election meddling activities.

also, in what way did he win "the majority of america?" the electoral vote? yes, he won that, and yes that is what determines who is president. but he didn't get the majority of voters, he lost the popular vote by 3 million people. not to mention his approval rating among average americans right now is hovering a littl...

democratic policy goals poll in everything from "slight majority" to "heavy majority" in terms of american favorability. the issue is that majority preference does not matter in our elections, election rules that restrict or limit voting or voting power do. it's why the gop has been able to hold on to much more power t...

at the end of the day, it boils down to: should you have to pay the state government/courts before you get the right to vote. the 11th circuit said no.

i don't think ranked choice would benefit the us election all that much when the winner takes all system stays. because there aren't enough leftist to win many elections ranked choice voting would probably still mean that your vote goes toward liberals.

and yet that's what the unionists latch onto for their argument. i suppose the tories can't come outright and say the real reason for no referendum, their incapable of telling the truth. you have proven my point its a trap that either way it suits the unionists.

dude. the establishment is gonna change their tune about the popular vote and delegates in 3 days. bernie is set to win both by all accounts. he won't get over 50% which leads to a brokered convention, and biden becoming the nominee while receiving less votes. this guarantees a trump win, which it seems the dnc doesn't...

call me naive but this isn’t something i’m afraid of at all. i do believe he could try to retain his office and i do believe he might try to take drastic measures to do so, but if he actually loses the election, at the end of the day, there’s not a damn thing he can do to keep it. the time between november and january ...
