#FusionVoting
I’m not a movie critic, but here’s a must-watch on PBS

It tells the story of an 1890s #fusionvoting alliance between recently enfranchised Black voters & poor White farmers

Together, they passed reforms, & built progress—until the Klan violently overthrew them

This history needs to be remembered

Greetings all—it's #Juneteenth, a powerful day in the Black freedom struggle. In NC's history, newly emancipated Black voters allied with poor White farmers through fusion politics. That same spirit can guide us today. #FusionVoting can break the two-party doom loop—and build a real #democracy.

It’s not every day a former Dem & GOP governor agree on fixing democracy—but Jon Corzine and Christine Todd Whitman just did. In New Jersey, they’re calling to revive fusion voting: more choice, more accountability, less toxic politics. NJ could lead the way. 👀 #FusionVoting 🗳️ #DemocracyReform

#FusionVoting 🗳️✨ benefits everyone: voters get more choices, minor parties gain a voice, major parties build broader coalitions, and democracy becomes more representative. It’s a win-win for a stronger, fairer political system. #ElectionReform #DemocracyInAction

A post #2024Election discussion with @bostonreview.bsky.social contributor @leedrutman.bsky.social who is a Senior Fellow @newamerica.org : "The core thing about democracy is it's about organizing power, and fusion voting encourages organizing power." #FusionVoting #ElectionReform

Authoritarianism thrives when power is concentrated. Fusion voting does the opposite—it decentralizes power, amplifies diverse voices, and strengthens democracy by giving voters more choice, not less. #FusionVoting #Democracy #ElectionReform #Polarization #DoomLoop

#FusionVoting 🗳️✨ empowers minor parties and their voters to shape election outcomes and influence the values and priorities of winning administrations, turning voices into real impact. @raders.bsky.social @protectdemocracy.org

Hope is on the horizon in NJ! A court case challenging the ban on #FusionVoting could bring more choice to voters and shake up the two-party system. Learn more: centerforballotfreedom.org

It's #Juneteenth, a powerful day in the Black freedom struggle. In NC's history, newly emancipated Black voters allied with poor White farmers through fusion politics. That same spirit can guide us today. #FusionVoting can break the two-party doom loop and build a multiracial, multiparty #democracy.

Here's an idea 💡 #FusionVoting 🗳️ #ElectionReform ✨
Today, Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez proposed a new task for to look at electoral reforms which could break up the two party system in Congress, expand the number of House districts, and move the House to a form of proportional representation.

It's a very, very good idea.
Blue Dogs Propose New Task Force to Look at ‘Winner-Take-All’ Election System
The bipartisan task force would investigate structural reforms like multimember districts and adding more House members in an effort to address growing polarization and distrust of Congress.

#FusionVoting incentivizes what D.C. fears most: cooperation.

On issues like immigration—where 60%+ of Americans agree—we get gridlock because the two parties are locked in combat. Fusion lets coalition-minded voters back candidates across parties who support real solutions. #ElectionReform

In what became a prevailing false narrative on Election Day, Elon Musk and others suggested NYC ballots were deceptively formatted to boost Zohran Mamdani.

But Mamdani and Curtis Sliwa were both listed twice because each was endorsed by two parties, per state election law.

This Presidents Day, let’s honor the legacy of our leaders by strengthening democracy. Fusion voting gives voters more choices and fosters a vibrant multi-party system—just what the Founders would’ve wanted. 🇺🇸 #PresidentsDay #FusionVoting

If antitrust laws applied to politics, fusion voting bans would've been toast ages ago. 🍞

The two-party monopoly rigs the game, blocks competition, and calls it democracy. Time for the courts to step in. This isn’t just bad policy—it’s an antitrust violation. #FusionVoting #BreakTheDuopoly

The two-party doom loop is tearing America apart. The solution? Strange as it may sound, more parties are the answer. #FusionVoting allows new parties that matter to form—creating incentives for cooperation, compromise & real democracy. Let’s fix the system, not abandon it. #ElectionReform

Many Americans might be surprised to learn that the Empire State has a multiparty system. Third parties have shared the ballot with Democrats and Republicans since the 1930s, often cross-endorsing major-party candidates through #FusionVoting #ThrowbackThursday #TBT

In Germany, rivals form coalitions after elections. In fusion voting, we do it before.

Minor parties cross-nominate major ones—but with conditions. It’s how you get compromise, stability, and real representation without burning it all down. #FusionVoting #DemocracyReform

Hyperpartisan polarization is a uniquely American crisis. Unlike most countries with systems that encourage compromise & coalition, our two-party system forces division. The solution? #FusionVoting—a way to inject proportionality & cooperation, avoiding the winner-takes-all disaster. #ElectionReform

#FusionVoting is a win for voters! 🙌 As @raders.bsky.social from @protectdemocracy.org explains, it empowers people to choose the party that best aligns with their worldview while expanding voter choice. 🗳️ Let’s bring back this powerful tool for a stronger #Democracy!

Fusion voting could’ve changed history. In 2000, Nader got 90K votes in Florida, tipping the race to Bush. In NY, fusion let 150K+ vote Gore under minor parties. If FL had fusion, just 35K shifting could’ve flipped the race. Imagine the last 25 years if it had. #FusionVoting #ElectionReform

Third parties: attractive, but mostly foolish.

The fix? #FusionVoting. It lets minor parties cross-nominate major candidates—so your vote counts and sends a message.

Once legal everywhere, but now in just a handful of states. Let's bring it back. Learn more: centerforballotfreedom.org

Women have long led the fight for political change—including using fusion voting to build coalitions and expand democracy. This Women’s History Month, let’s celebrate their impact! #WomensHistoryMonth #FusionVoting

Governance is failing because politics is failing. And politics is failing because our two-party system is broken. There’s no incentive for coalition-building—just all-or-nothing power struggles. We need a system that works. We need to revive #FusionVoting 🗳️✨

A little #fusionvoting history: In 1826 in Philadelphia, the Workingmen’s Party—America’s first labor party—ran candidates in coalition w/ the Jacksonian Democrats, campaigning for a 10-hour day! AND THEY WON. The 10-hour day became a national model: the power of fusion voting! 🗳️✨
