The other side says these laws make it necessary to ensure election integrity.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another large and growing group of <a href=\"https:\/\/nonpartisanreformers.org\/\">nonpartisan reformers<\/a>, however, is having an entirely different and more fundamental discussion about voting rights: one that addresses the structural incentives of our election system to produce election winners who represent the values of the voters instead of big money politics on both sides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For years, advocates of Ranked Choice Voting have argued for a structural change to our elections that allow voters to rank their candidates rather than being forced to choose \u201cbetween the lesser of two evils.\u201d Ranked Choice Voting reform is gaining wide popularity and has recently been implemented by the voters of the state of Maine and the city of New York.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Advocates for nonpartisan primaries have argued for a structural change that allows all voters, regardless of party, to nominate candidates for the general election, rather than being forced to vote for a political party\u2019s nominee in the taxpayer funded primary. The voters in Washington state, Louisiana and California have all, relatively recently, passed <a href=\"https:\/\/ballotpedia.org\/Top-two_primary\">nonpartisan primaries<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To-date, however, nonpartisan reformers have largely argued with each other in the corner of a wonky room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The voters of Alaska, however, may have demonstrated a new era in the saga of progressive election reform. In 2020, Alaska became the first state to adopt a <a href=\"https:\/\/ballotpedia.org\/Primary_elections_in_Alaska\">\u201ctop-four\u201d nonpartisan primary<\/a>, using Ranked Choice Voting to decide the winner in the general election.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Call it a truce or a marriage \u2013 reformers came together to advance a single reform that may take 100 years for big money insider politics to game like they do in most other states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now Alaska, not California, is the nation\u2019s most progressive state for voting rights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But that may soon change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An active nonpartisan group of reformers in San Diego is adapting and improving on the Alaska model, a model that many reformers across the country have been exploring: <a href=\"https:\/\/morechoicesd.org\/\">More Choice San Diego<\/a> proposes a system that will maintain California\u2019s nonpartisan primary, but advance five candidates instead of two. Voters then rank those candidates in their order of preference in the general election.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Imagine if voters had a chance to rank five candidates who bring five different perspectives to the race. Now imagine, to win, a candidate needs second-, third-, and fourth-place votes from voters who might prefer another candidate even more.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If Californians are tired of the chemical warfare of partisan politics, this could be the declaration of independence that brings the resistance together.<\/p>\n\n\n\t<div\n\t\tclass=\"wp-block-newspack-blocks-homepage-articles
