Reforms


In order to realize FairVote's vision of a truly fair, open, and equitable democracy, we support these fundamental reforms.

Though they are not the only issues within our focus, they serve as the core of our advocacy and research.



Fair Elections:

Americans deserve a system in which a large diversity of voices can be part of the debate without fear of "spoiling" an election, one that is transparent and accountable, and one that honors equality and majority rule.

  • Key Reforms: National Popular Vote, Instant Runoff Voting, Presidential Nomination Reform

Fair Representation:

In a representative democracy, the right of decision belongs to the majority, but the right to representation belongs to all.

  • Key Reforms: Choice Voting, Fix the House

Fair Access to Participation:

The long term health and integrity of American democracy depend upon the degree to which Americans choose to participate and the access to participation granted by our governmental institutions.

  • Key Reforms: Universal Registration, Right to Vote Amendment

Special Projects:
