Australia uses #RankedChoiceVoting for the lower & upper house - after last year’s election women hold 57% of seats in the Senate - we can elect more women to Congress with the #FairRepresentationAct that will be reintroduced this fall 👏🏼👏🏼Rep. Jamie Raskin Rep. Don Beyer Rep. Teresa Leger Fernández
[Multimember districts] might sound like a big lift, but it’s fully constitutional, deeply aligned with our founding vision, and only requires Congress to pass a statute.
