Justin will you join me in a call for an electronic meeting to pass goals?
I don't want another year to go by without them.

pushing Bills for years to implement Approval Voting in NH.
The Center for Election Sciences is also engaged in non partisan
efforts
to push Approval Voting across the country, I regularly communicate
with
them and aide with their lobbying efforts in New England.
LPMA has been working with Fairvote to implement Ranked Choice
Voting in
Massachusetts, and Maine recently got RCV implemented for partisan
elections.
I'm incredibly partial to approval voting myself from a mathematical
standpoint and the applications of Arrows Theorem of Voting
Fairness,
and have actually actively opposed RCV in NH because of the bills
that
have been submitted included replacing our multi member districts
(up to
30+ candidates for 11 seats) with ranked party slate voting. But I
recognize NH has a very unique electoral system that is especially
set
up to make RCV incompatible, but Approval Voting the ideal.
This IS a state by state issue though, and I know North Dakota is
starting to see traction with Approval voting due to the efforts of
CES.
And I would support LP Involvement in the efforts.
