I want to stay away from dry technicalities and go to the emotional heart of my activism. And I think that that heart is that I want a democracy that voters can be proud of. In practice, I believe that such pride would reflect more-honest voting and would lead to higher turnout, and that both of these would improve outcomes. It's the simple idea of the wisdom of the crowd: a larger crowd whose voices can be heard more clearly and honestly will be wiser.<div><br></div><div>My initial attempts at writing this piece are up at <a href="https://medium.com/@jameson.quinn/make-america-proud-to-vote-again-mava-7ef14b8bf606" target="_blank">https://medium.com/@jameson<wbr>.quinn/make-america-proud-to-<wbr>vote-again-mava-7ef14b8bf606</a>. For now, they're still very incomplete, but I'd welcome comments. Of course, the people I'm sending this message to are in some sense the "early adopter" audience for this piece of writing once it's finished. So if you comment now, I hope that when I'm done, and send another message in this thread to tell you about it, you'll take a moment to "like" the piece on Medium.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div></div>
