    Looking to shut up those people complaining about both sides from the sidelines? Put them in the game by passing electoral reform in your state.

    Since they seem to know it all, let them show us how it’s done by replacing First-past-the-post voting, passing equal access and airtime laws, and switching away from a perpetual election cycle to something shorter and more reasonable.

    Get them to prove to us they know how to do things by making third parties viable and doing away with the infamous spoiler effect that is inherent with FPTP voting.

    More people involved in the poltical process, more people voting, more people voting = more democratic votes, more chances to defeat the republicans, more people to call out bullshit on the debate stage, no more canceled debates because of giant man babies.

    Electoral reform is just win after win for the American people. I know the election season has people exhausted, but things don’t have to be this way. We can be free.
