John -- 

Did you know tomorrow, January 23rd, is Ranked-Choice Voting Day (1-23, get it)? Moving our electoral system away from plurality winners to majority winners is vital to protecting and strengthening our democracy. We're excited to be joining with groups across the country to celebrate the day!

Beyond RCV Day, we have plenty of great community-building events coming up! Check out what's happening close to you.

Best,

-- The Forward Party Team
