Last year I wrote an RCV paper that is very accessible for students. Last month a professor asked me to share the data so his class could replicate. I said sure and offered to zoom into their class to chat. I’m happy to do the same for your classes! journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/15…

American advocates of RCV need to grapple with how different outcomes can be when providing full ranking is optional vs. when it is compulsory. Here we find some nice data visualization and discussion of the impacts.
And just as I've been discussing OPV vs CPV, a blog post I drafted a few days ago has gone live at the Tally Room looking at how different preference flows under the two systems would change outcomes for the City of Brisbane tallyroom.com.au/55196
The problems that Sinema describes—"compromise is a dirty word" and policy outcomes are "less important than beating the other guy"—are a direct consequence of our electoral system. Why do Americans "retreat farther into their partisan corners"? Our winner-take-all system. 🧵

This is fantastic news. @RickPildes is indeed the leading intellectual trailblazer of our election law field. For all of us who have been so influenced by Ely's Democracy and Distrust & related work, this recognition is especially meaningful & appropriate. Many congratulations!!!
I’m delighted to see the most important and influential election law scholar recognized for his pathbreaking contributions to the field.
Happy New Gregorian Year from the Israeli Supreme Court! There was a leak a few days ago saying there was 8-7 vote to invalidate. The opinion needed to be released in the next couple of weeks if two retired justices who participated in the hearing were to be included.
Keep checking back at electproject.org. Big things are afoot, inspired by my surprising (to me) substack success michaelmcdonald.substack.com I believe there is room for another election analysis site that doesn't group-think to the center-right
I've said it before and I'll say it again: Never before in the history of the world has a person amassed so much fame for being able to average a list of numbers
A perfect encapsulation of Nate Silver. Gets the analysis part wrong (the ruling is about state legislative maps, not congressional) while being gratuitously awful. Thank god ABC fired him.
