Ranked choice voting increases support for proportional representation. I want PRCV (aka STV), but I will take RCV to increase the odds of PRCV. If that's all just gibberish to you, read this and follow @fairvote.bsky.social too.
Ranked Choice Voting as a stepping stone to Proportional Representation
Voter support for ranked choice voting transfers into support for proportional representation in ways that support for other reforms do not

We did it! We defeated the #Redistricting effort!
Congratulations. This was a team effort. Thank you for your contribution!
Now, it will likely be back next session, but that gives us the opportunity to talk more about #FairRepresentation and how to give South Carolinians #MoreChoiceMoreVoice

I'm on team democracy and I wish we'd have started universal basic income and healthcare decades ago, and abolished gerrymandering with PRCV and never did Citizens United in order to have avoided this fascist dumpster fire entirely.

With these #GerrymanderingWars raging, we've been talking about a better solution: proportional ranked choice voting. But how does it work?

Most of us just want to live and enjoy life. Some people want to accumulate power, and those are the people who tend to run for office. This dynamic is a key weakness of democracy and why it's so important to enable normal people to seek office. And so we need PRCV, UBI, and campaign finance reform.

We gotta do more than that too of course, but my point is we have to go big and actually do those big things. We need deep structural reforms and programs like UBI and M4A that are foundational to basic needs. We need democracy reforms like PRCV that make it hard for fascism to take hold ever again.

A timely read for Charlottesville -- which just held it's first PRCV election + had its upzoning package overturned. Election reform and housing construction go hand-in-hand.
Why Electoral Reform is Key to the Abundance Agenda
Proportional representation would provide stronger incentives to pursue the ambitious projects that the abundance agenda envisions.

RCV has a ton of real world election evidence behind it. STAR and AV do not. Here's a good example of PRCV IRL.
Imagine if Congress was elected by Proportional Representation
Illinois’ 110-yr history with a form of PR resulted in more voter choice, more bipartisanship, less bitter polarization and better representation—a lesson for our times

All of this can be applied to the US too and our Democratic party. We need every state possible to pass ranked choice voting and nonpartisan primaries so that we can get PR passed via PRCV and multi-winner districts. End the two-party system everywhere it has reared its monster head!

4/5 D0 deletion isn't new: in pigs, loss of D0 in TGEV gave rise to PRCV, shifting tropism to the respiratory tract. In FCoV-23, D0 deletion enhances cell-cell fusion and accelerates entry — and thus provides an advantage to the virus.

In order to really fix things, we have to enact major systemic reforms. There is no way around them. Any politician who is too timid to enact these reforms needs to be seen as absolutely incapable of meeting this moment.
To do this, local reforms are where to start. YOUR state should have PRCV.

PRCV via RCV and multi-winner districts is proportional and what I prefer. The Fair Representation Act is what I consider vital to pass into law.
