I agree with the proposal to move; one or the other, not both, and Center for Voting and Democracy is likely to be ambiguous. Septentrionalis 21:57, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

Most of this article seems to have lots of problems with it. It is uncited assertions and doesn't follow WP:NPOV. In fact it looks like it was probably copied from somewhere with phrases such as "our ultimate goal", "One of our most active programs", etc. If no one objects after a couple of weeks, and the article doesn't get cleaned up, I think I'll delete the offending material.

I think they have "de-prioritized" STV, and talk also of "District Plus"( Coachtripfan ( talk) 15:42, 22 September 2013 (UTC))

Fairvotes advoctaes multi-member seats for House elections. However, this does not guarantee that the overall national vote is proportional to votes cast. Their own analysis avoid giving a break-down - which arguably shows the Republicans would still have won the House on a lower vote than the Democrats. House election under "Fair Votes"Indeed, they also advocate "District Plus" to address this problem. Problems with multi-member systems( Coachtripfan ( talk) 15:44, 22 September 2013 (UTC))
¿Should mention this. Also, one must buy expensive new voting equipment because IRV uses a ranked ballot. ¿Should we mention that if we eliminate the overvote rule, we can use existing equipment and Approval Voting (the system allowing one to approve multiple candidates) lets 3rd parties and independents win?

Visiting the FairVote.org page today shows their support for only 2 reforms 1) Ranked Choice Voting, and 2) Fair Representation act. The section in this article on proposed reforms should be updated to reflect their current proposals. Also it will be interesting to know why they changed their supported policies. Thanks!

This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered. |
On a recent edit to this article, in accordance with WP:COI, I disclosed a (non monetary!) COI between me and Fairvote. However, after that edit, a paid editing tag was placed on this page.
Even if editors think my edits were inappropriate and should be reverted, a paid editing tag is the wrong tag to put on the article. I don't want to remove the tag myself because of the (former) (non-monetary!) COI, but unless there is any evidence/indication that there was actually paid editing, I don't feel like it's the correct tag.
That the paid editing tag be removed, as it was added in response to a disclosed, non monetary COI which I disclosed.
