Pages tagged "Score Voting"

Posted by Sara Wolk · April 03, 2020 7:13 PM



Our voting system is broken,
but it doesn't have to stay that way.

 

STAR Voting is all about the idea that we should be able to vote our conscience, our votes should never be wasted, and our elections should accurately reflect the will of the people.

 


 

STAR stands for Score Then Automatic Runoff, and that's exactly how it works:

  • Scoring Round: Add up all the stars from all the ballots. The two highest scoring are finalists.
  • Automatic Runoff: The finalist preferred by more voters wins. In the runoff, each ballot counts as one vote for the finalist that voter preferred. If both finalists were scored equally that is a vote of no preference between those two.

Working locally we are building a national movement and a model for more fair, inclusive, and representative elections. No more spoilers, no more choosing between the lesser of two evils. No more stepping stone reforms.

   

  • Honesty is the best strategy. Strategic voting is not incentivized.

  • Highly accurate, no matter how many candidates/parties are in the race.

  • No parties, candidates, or voters are excluded. Doesn't give anyone an unfair advantage.

  • Every voter has an equally weighted vote.

  • Combats the influence of money in politics.

  • Even if your favorite can’t win your vote helps prevent your worst case scenario.

  • Can be locally tabulated using the current process.

  • Fully constitutional in Oregon, and around the country. This is a nationally viable proposal.

  • Fights polarization.
