We're a nonprofit advocating for multiparty democracy through proportional representation in California. Join our movement for a better democracy! #FBPR
Were you happy with the available choices on Election Day? If so, we're happy for you.
But if not, work with us to tear down the two-party system and replace it with a more representative, competitive, and functional multi-party system via #ProportionalRepresentation.
So many people will be forced to vote in November in an election in which only one party really has a chance at winning. This can be solved with Proportional Representation
"Multimember districts help alleviate the problem of one member deciding all of the priorities for that district, introducing healthy competition among the district’s representatives vying to be the most responsive to their constituents."

With proportional representation & multi-member districts, "all voters can affect elections by affecting their party’s representation.
These reforms also reduce polarization, restrain gerrymandering, & boost competition."
– Robert Levy of @CatoInstitutecato.org/blog/multi-member-d…
"This week, Eveline sits down with Colin Cole and Heather Villanueva of @EquitableDemo.... They have spent years building the case and the coalitions for proportional representation at the local level."

"In a single member district..., 51 percent of voters can elect one candidate and the other 49 percent get nothing. ...[In] one broader district that elects four winners... 25 percent... can elect one of the candidates."

Proportional representation has long had the overwhelming support of people whose job is to study elections. We wrote this letter with @protctdemocracy in 2022, signed by 200 political scientists and historians.

How else to fairly represent minorities, whether they be liberals in conservative districts, conservatives in liberal districts, ethnic/religious minorities, etc.?
#ProportionalRepresentation gives everyone fair representation no matter HOW you draw the district lines.
Great discussion on #ProportionalRepresentation between @leedrutman and @ezraklein.
Gerrymandering is a national problem that no state can solve alone.
To end gerrymandering once and for all, we need a national shift toward proportional representation.
Ezra Klein and I talk gerrymandering, proportional representation, and all kinds of madness.
This is an episode of the Ezra Klein Show you won't want to miss!

"[Lee Drutman is] one of the most persistent and thoughtful advocates of selecting House members through #ProportionalRepresentation – a system used in many other countries that would make gerrymandering much more difficult."

"A system in which political parties can rewrite the rules to keep themselves in power indefinitely... is not a democracy.... This could be passage of a stronger, revitalized Voting Rights Act... or moving the country toward #ProportionalRepresentation."

"Callais could... bring renewed momentum to the ongoing campaign to steer the House [towards] #ProportionalRepresentation through the use of multimember districts, which would require... repealing an existing federal law against multimember districts."

🧩 Gerrymandering is hurting our democracy. Proportional representation is a solution!
What is we had multi-member districts with fair representation? Imagine is we could make gerrymandering essentially pointless. No more drawing lines to pick your voters. Voters pick their representatives.
🗨️ How would fair representation impact your local or state government? 👇
