Friend --
We hope you and your loved ones are safe and healthy in these challenging and uncertain times.
The Covid-19 pandemic has powerfully disrupted our lives. It’s also revealed that election systems long-deserving of reform are showing new fragility.
We at FairVote are paying close attention to the presidential primaries and the general election. There is no more important time to ensure safe, secure and fair elections.

Please join us and contact your Governor <[link removed]>, asking them to release a comprehensive plan to ensure all citizens have a safe way to register and vote this November.

We know elections can be better. Alaska is a great example: long before the pandemic, Democrats shifted to vote-by-mail and used ranked choice voting <[link removed]> as an alternative to the caucus system. In Alaska, instead of moving your body when your candidate is no longer viable, you can rank candidates in the safety of your home.

If you’re interested in talking with advocates on the ground about ranked choice voting in their state for the presidential primary season, join us Thursday, April 16 at 1pm ET <[link removed]>.
We’ll have a live conversation about the different election systems used in Wisconsin, Alaska and Washington’s for the 2020 Presidential Primaries differences. Deb Otis, FairVote Data Analyst will moderate a discussion with Mohit Nair, FairVote Washington Partnerships Director; Bob Betzig, FairVote Wisconsin President and Field Director; and Amber Lee, PR Consultant for FairVote’s Presidential Primaries education project in Alaska. Click here to RSVP. <[link removed]>
