✍️One such PR system is #ApprovalVoting (AP). Instead of ticking off one candidate at the ballot, voters will tick off all of the candidates they “approve” of, while leaving their undesired candidates’ slots blank.

#ApprovalVoting or #STARVoting would be better. IRV can't solve polarized two-party duopoly, vote-splitting, or the spoiler effect because it's still a zero-sum game just like choose-one voting. Your RCV ballot under IRV still only ever supports a single candidate, just one at a time in turns.

Your support fuels the momentum behind #ApprovalVoting victories and legislation. Please submit your Donor-Advised Fund recommendations now to help us scale this success and make durable, practical reform possible. Thank you!

The direct road to the White House and State House should be YOUR house. 🏡
Approval Voting ends vote splitting and ensures that those elected to the highest offices are truly chosen by the people, not just a polarized few.

Score Voting has a strategic incentive to min/max scores—max score your favorite(s), min score everyone else. #ApprovalVoting solves that by, effectively, making every voter use that strategy, whereas #STARVoting solves it by making relative scores count in the runoff round.

The @ForwardPartyUT is making history! They will use #ApprovalVoting and a secure online ballot (SIV) for the replacement vote for Senator Daniel Thatcher (SD 11). Approval Voting is simpler, fairer, and preferred by clerks. Learn more: 11chooses.com

The Center for Election Science The Center for Election Science is a national, nonpartisan leader in approval voting, election analysis and voting method research. Approval Voting is an alternative voting method that allows voters to select all of the candidates that they like.

Maybe democracy could take a cue from social media.

Let voters “like” every candidate they actually support — and let the most broadly approved leader rise to the top.

We’ve already proven Approval methods works. We use them every day.

If social media used single-choice voting, engagement would collapse.

Approval Voting keeps it real — engaging, simple to use, fast to count, and it reflects what most people actually like.

#ApprovalVoting #ElectionReform #DemocracyInnovation

Now think about how social media really works. You can “like” every post you genuinely enjoy — your friend’s photo, a meme, a news story — and each one counts.

That’s Approval Voting.

You approve of everything that resonates. Simple, natural, honest.
