Watch @lisadtrice.bsky.social of @growdemocracydc.bsky.social demonstrate how #RankedChoiceVoting works in today’s DC primaries ⬇️

"Voters across DC successfully ranked their ballots, and enjoyed the additional choice and power it gave them. We rank things every day, and voters quickly learned how to rank candidates." – @growdemocracydc.bsky.social’s @lisadtrice.bsky.social on Washington, DC’s 1st use of ranked choice voting

Time to strengthen, protect and expand Democracy. Sign up for lobby day!

An extra thank you to Eric Bidstrup from @fairvotewa.bsky.social and Heather Trim from Zero Waste Washington for sharing their work at our general meeting yesterday. They were both informative and gave some hope during these hard times that WA is seeing progress.

Money shouldn’t decide who runs for office or who gets heard. Prop 1 protects a program that gives power back to everyday people. That’s the kind of democracy we believe in. #Prop1Seattle

Check your mailbox, Seattle! Don’t miss your chance to vote YES on #Prop1Seattle to renew funding for our Democracy Voucher Program — a first-in-the-nation tool that puts everyday people at the center of our elections.

Seattle’s Democracy Voucher Program has transformed local elections. Since it launched, small-donor participation has increased fivefold — especially among renters, young people, and communities of color. That’s real progress. Let’s keep it going. Vote YES on #Prop1Seattle by August 5.

Please join us for our second annual Democracy Champions Hall of Fame Luncheon with featured speaker Jenny Lee, the Deputy Director of Portland’s Coalition of Communities of Color! Baseball attire encouraged! RSVP by June 5: secure.anedot.com/fairvote/dem... Paid for by FairVote WA PAC.

"For my neighbors who were raised on American exceptionalism, the recent White House attacks on our democracy seem unreal, impossible. "But my family is from Iran." So begins this op-ed by Nilu from @fairvotewa.bsky.social

Federal SAVE Act is the latest attempt to erode voting rights | Op-Ed

In Washington state, voting rights advocates like me watched nearly all democracy-related bills stall in our Legislature this year.
