How about an election system that puts voters (and not politicians) first?
From hours-long lines and limited polling locations to confusing and discriminatory registration policies, why is it so hard to vote? US Voting rights expert Amber McReynolds offers a proven alternative: a new process, already happening in parts of the United States, that could bring accountability, transparency and equity to the outdated and sputtering system that democracy currently relies on.
Did you ever stop to think that making voters stand in line for hours at a time is disrespectful? Surely making voting difficult goes against the very core of democracy!
Many established politicians would not actually benefit personally from a reformed voting process that’s inclusive for all voters. Politicians are the players in the game, but yet they set the rules for the game. Election policy must be about who votes, not who wins.
Voters deserve an awesome and safe voting experience, free from barriers and burdens. Politicians serve US, NOT the other way around.
“Expect Excellence, Demand Excellence and Advocate for Excellence,” says McReynolds in the video below:.
