A New Kind of Third Party: I Support FairVote's Leadership in American Proportional Representation Advocacy

"I encourage others to contribute to FairVote and to target their contribution towards their advocacy for the use of Proportional Representation (or multi-seated elections) in state assembly and city council or other municipal elections in ways that are more in continuity with American Exceptionalism. This probably entails the use of smaller numbers of seats and the use of cumulative voting (as has been used in IL and was recently adopted in Port Chester, NY) or perhaps my personal favorite: 3-seated Hare Largest Remainder."

I agree with Proportional Representation (PR)! Please contribute if you can.  PR is a very important and timely issue for our nation. We need more than two "major" political parties sharing the true makeup of our diverse society.
