It really truly is. Anybody who looks at countries using first-past-the-post (aka plurality voting) sees a situation worth emulating.

Democracy isn’t just about voting. It’s about representation.
If your vote doesn’t help shape the legislature, it’s just decoration.
#ProportionalRepresentation makes your vote count for real.

#ProportionalRepresentation gives minorities a fair voice.
Not just ethnic and religious minorities, but ideological minorities, such as conservatives in blue states and liberals in red states.
(plus it also fixes gerrymandering)

California leads on tech, music, fashion, and culture.
But we still use a voting system that’s older than the telegraph.
Time to innovate our democracy: #ProportionalRepresentation.

If your politics feel stale, rigged, or stuck—
That’s not your fault.
It’s the system.
And systems can be changed. Let’s start with how we vote.

Because shouting into the void every two years isn’t what democracy is supposed to feel like.

Cthulhu for President. Why settle for a lesser evil?
Voting shouldn’t feel like choosing between a flat soda and a punch in the face.
Give us real options.
Give us #ProportionalRepresentation.

“Why vote? It won’t matter.”
You’re not wrong. That’s why we’re changing the rules.
#ProportionalRepresentation = every vote counts, every voice matters.

More women. More communities of color. More working-class voices. #ProportionalRepresentation creates a government that looks like the people it serves.

#ProportionalRepresentation is more democratic than winner-take-all, and the results bear it out.
When more votes affect the results, voter turnout is higher and policies better reflect what the voters want.

What if California’s government actually reflected its people? #ProportionalRepresentation makes sure our legislature isn’t just for the powerful—it’s for all of us.

I think this is a more realistic and data-driven picture of what a #MultipartyAmerica would look like.

Elections shouldn’t be about choosing the “lesser of two evils.”
With #ProportionalRepresentation, you can vote for the candidates you truly support and know your voice will be heard.

It's no coincidence that countries with #ProportionalRepresentation tend to see better results.
When our public servants are more representative of us, they better serve us.

Why do so many people sit out elections? Because they feel their vote won’t make a difference. #ProportionalRepresentation fixes that by making sure every vote counts toward real representation.

In a multi-party system, you need to play nicely with others to get anything done. In a winner-take-all system, you need to win majority power by any means necessary to get anything done.
