Day of Service

The American Bar Association's Task Force for American Democracy has released a big deal report for electoral reform.

The Task Force’s report recommends exploring the reintroduction of fusion voting, among other reforms.

Read the report here: www.americanbar.org/content/dam/...

With fusion voting, voters could back a viable candidate on the GOP line or on, say, the @unitedkansas.bsky.social party line—created for those fed up with both parties’ extremes. It’s a path forward that respects freedom of association and gives voters the broader choices they want.

Your Turn: Fusion voting — a path forward for democracy As America grapples with rising political extremism and voter disillusionment, a quiet legal revolution is brewing — and Kansas is at the center of it. On Oct. 17, the University of Kansas hosted a…

As America wrestles with political extremism, fusion voting could be a game‑changer: it lets minor parties cross‑nominate major party candidates, counting all votes together — restoring choice, reducing polarization, & empowering the center. @unitedkansas.bsky.social www2.ljworld.com/opinion/loca...

Kansas voters deserve more choices and less division.
Fusion voting lets candidates build coalitions across parties — not just red or blue.
Glad to see @ljworld spotlight this path forward for democracy.

Kansas could lead the Midwest in a democratic revival—more freedom for voters, less partisan control over politics. 🌾🗳️ @donhineman.bsky.social @unitedkansas.bsky.social

The state’s fusion ban isn’t just outdated—it violates our constitutional rights. This isn’t just a lawsuit. It’s a movement.

#FusionVoting is practical and powerful. 🗳️ @donhineman.bsky.social @unitedkansas.bsky.social

It lets voters back real issues—like rural development or education—without wasting their vote. Minor parties get a voice, & candidates must appeal beyond the base. #MoreVoicesMoreChoices #DemocracyReform

It’s not every day a former Dem & GOP governor agree on fixing democracy—but Jon Corzine and Christine Todd Whitman just did. In New Jersey, they’re calling to revive fusion voting: more choice, more accountability, less toxic politics. NJ could lead the way. 👀 #FusionVoting 🗳️ #DemocracyReform

Kansas has a proud history of #FusionVoting. 🇺🇸 @donhineman.bsky.social @unitedkansas.bsky.social

Opinion | What Elon Musk Gets Wrong About Our Broken Political System We need third parties. But there’s something we need first.

@politico.com: www.politico.com/news/magazin...

From @leedrutman.bsky.social to Elon Musk: If you’re serious about building a third party, then start with #FusionVoting. It’s how minor parties gain real power—by cross-nominating major party candidates and showing where their votes come from. Ballot lines = leverage. Third parties = power.

Kansas voters deserve more choices than 2-party rule, like they used to have | Opinion Only once — in 1897 — have Republicans not held at least one branch of state government. When they regained power in 1900, they outlawed fusion voting. | Opinion

United Kansas’ lawsuit against the 1901 anti-fusion law is a reminder that we can learn a lot from our history. There was a time in Kansas when voters had more choices.
