On @nexton9news Rep Lauren Bobert said he biggest surprise upon entering Congress was that a seat on a committee has to be sponsored by a major donor. It doesn’t have to be like this.

At no moment in American history has our winner-take-all districting system worked particularly well. There is no golden age of “fair districts.” The problems have been different at different times. The antiquated voting system that produces them has been there from the start.
I wrote a brief history of gerrymandering in America. It's always been bad. Just never THIS bad. (link below)

First-past-the-post hinders long-term policy by creating disproportionate majorities that swing between extremes, dismantling work of predecessors. Proportional representation fosters stability because governing requires representing a genuine majority of the electorate.

Here's what winner-take-all elections give us: safe districts where millions of voices don't matter. Here's what #ProportionalRepresentation gives us: every community gets representation. It's not rocket science—it's just fair.

How do we break out of the American doom loop? Northern Ireland did it. @georgekcheung & @equitabledemo got the details. The film premier is streaming on St. Patrick’s Day (Tues 3/17) eventbrite.com/e/double-feat…

Voter suppression (SAVE/MEGA) would be worse in Colorado because all (4.61m+) voters will have to re-register. Roughly 2m voters will have to pay a poll tax to get the required ID. Cost is varies from $20 to $185 and can take up to 6 weeks. #democracy democracy.io/#!/

Non-citizen voting is so rare that it does not affect outcomes. According to the Conservative Heritage Foundation, in each election cycle about 1-4 non-citizens vote in the *entire* nation.

A proposed a ballot measure to gerrymander Colorado to favor the democrats. We could eliminate gerrymandering all together with proportional representation. #ProportionalRepresentation #pRCV
How in the world can the @nytimes publish an article on how other countries deal with gerrymandering/districting and not make the observation that most countries use proportional electoral systems that make redistricting unimportant in the first place? nytimes.com/2026/02/18/us/mi…

Year after year, most voters have to guess the two front-runners and vote for one of them to avoid “wasting” their vote. With RCV, they could simply rank who they love, who they like, and who they can live with to be included in finding the consensus of a majority.

Proportional representation builds fairness into the system of self-rule Pick-one, winner-take-all has been the go-to policy for segregationists
South Africa’s democratic transition shows why proportional representation matters. When every major group knows its vote will count, elections reduce fear, lower tensions, and make peaceful change possible. Winner-take-all systems do the opposite.

The Make Elections Great Again (MEGA) act will nationalize elections (in violation of the 10th Amendment) to force the purge of voter rolls every 30 days. At least 21 million people will be disenfranchised this November if it passes. Colorado’s full delegation should oppose it
Congress failed to pass the SAVE Act last year for good reason: it’s an anti-voter bill. But now lawmakers have revived it despite overwhelming public opposition. bit.ly/4qS8wBr

The United States shows what happens when first-past-the-post locks politics into two-party trench warfare. Small vote shifts create total control. That is not stability. Proportional representation reduces all or nothing outcomes and reflects voters more accurately.

Instead voters pick between the two most famous candidates. Most vote against the candidate they dislike, not for a candidate’s plans for when they are in office. Gamesmanship makes politicians say things that blame the other side.

If the rules of the game were different they’d act different. As it is now, our voting system continues to weaken our country. Unless we do better by changing voting to a system that makes politicos accountable to voters, AI will hasten our fracturing.
