Ranked Choice Voting ensures every voice is heard and fosters more positive campaigns. It requires candidates to reach beyond their base to form a consensus, reflecting a broader will of the people.

Donald Trump represents a set of policies and a direction for our country that I profoundly disagree with. I do not believe he should or will be re-elected. Our efforts are focused on ensuring a fair election and advocating for policies that support all Americans, not just the wealthy and powerful.

While I understand concerns about the capacity of aging politicians to serve, implementing a maximum age limit might not be the best approach. We should ensure that all elected officials, regardless of age, can effectively represent their constituents and serve public interest. The democratic process allows voters to decide whether a candidate is fit for office.

I believe that closed party primaries are important for ensuring that political party members have a say in selecting candidates who truly represent their values and priorities. A single, nonpartisan open primary system could dilute the influence of parties, leading to candidates who might not fully align with the core beliefs of their members. Political parties play a crucial role in organizing and expressing diverse viewpoints, and their members should have the opportunity to choose their representatives.

I believe that approval voting can offer a fairer and more democratic way to conduct our elections. It allows voters to select all the candidates they approve of, thereby reflecting a broader consensus and reducing the 'lesser of two evils' dilemma. This could lead to more representative outcomes and encourage more diverse voices in our political process.
