Good Trouble
For any Michigan listeners - There is currently a petition to implement Ranked Choice Voting here in the state. This is a great idea that will better represent the preference of the voters in our elections.
To sign the petition, go to rankmivote.org and click “Where do I sign?”. I found a signing event 3 blocks from my office happening the same day. So easy.
