    I am a member if no party because I fundamentally disagree with political parties in first past the post electoral systems for the same reason I oppose communism. When it scales up a party makes it far too easy for the party leadership to abuse that power and institutionalizing that power means that positive change is more difficult to enact.

      Registering for primaries at least when there are primary candidates that are prominently championing ranked-choice voting might be worth considering.

        Nope, the state Democratic party sucks and I don’t live in the one district that ever goes Democrat for state representative. All of our national stuff is Republicans and has been for decades.

        I only vote because we sometimes get elect a Democrat for a governor.
