Hey everyone,

Missouri Agrees is running a fundraising campaign so they can put Freedom Voting Up for referendum.

You can donate through any of the campaigns here and your impact will be TRIPLED. +1 from the individual campaign and +1 from an anonymous donor. They're aiming for 1.2 million by July 1st, so every dollar counts. It's an all or nothing fundraiser, so if we fall short everyone gets their money back.

Don't know what Freedom Voting is? It's also called Approval Voting and you can read more about it here. The short answer is it gives you the freedom to vote for everyone you like instead of having to just choose one. That's it. Instead of "pick one" it's "pick any number." It fixes a huge number of problems while also being ridiculously simple.

If anyone has any questions of course I'm open to chatting.

If this counts as advertising, just let me know and I'll take down the post.

I'm collecting donations to fund a referendum campaign to switch Missouri to Freedom Voting (AKA Approval Voting). This is being organized by Missouri Agrees and the donations are being facilitated by the Action Network and Show Me Integrity. Link to donate here.

We're aiming for $1.2 million by Saturday July 1st and this is an all-or-nothing affair. If we meet our funding goal, the signature campaign for the reference goes ahead. If we don't, everyone gets their money back. Now here's the good news, any of the fundraisers up to Molly's fundraiser will get you a 3:1 power multiplier. For every dollar you donate their in the link they donate a dollar AND an anonymous third person will donate one too.

Now at this point you might be wondering, what the heck is Freedom Voting anyway? Great question, I'm glad you asked. Here we go:

  1. Vote for everyone you like.
  2. Most votes wins.
  3. That's it.

Why is it called Freedom Voting? Well, because it gives you the freedom to vote for everyone you like, instead of having to choose only one. You can no longer waste your vote on a minor candidate, because voting for them doesn't stop you from voting for anyone else. It's also called Approval Voting because the fundamental question is "do you approve of this candidate or not?"

Of course, it fixes loads of problems with our current system. No more spoilers, fewer invalid ballots, representative results both in theory and real life, and it's always safe to vote for your favorite, no matter what. Simply put, people love it.

If you guys have any questions just let me know, I'm happy to chat!
