Get the vote gloatmug. by Moistyboy December 5, 2018
Get the Votemug. Blacks and other minorities tend to vote in favor of politicians that support policies that promotes social justice, equality of opportunity, protects the safety net, affordable heath care, daycare, affordable housing, quality education, and provides job security and living wages to the middle and working classes.
Blacks are typically a minority in a general election so they depend on the majority of the voting population to contribute enough votes to their candidate of choice to have a chance of winning.
In many cases the opposing party will try to discourage people to collectively vote with blacks and/or to reduce the power of minority voting using strategies from voter suppression to gerrymandering, increase voting times and places. So when you vote consider how your vote will impact the blacks and other minorities and their candidate and policy choices. Sadly wasteful non-voting and extreme voting practices by the privileged, such as voting for non-viable candidates has resulted in destroying the potential of the black vote to matter.

Black Votes Matter only when they collectively have enough votes for their candidate to win. So understand the implications to blacks and other minorities regarding your choice, and how much you vote matters to their choice.

Get the Vote for changermug. A system of voting created in 2014 for single seat elections (although variations exist for multi seat or proportional elections). TL;DR for how it works: Voter gives all candidates score from 1-5. Top 2 highest scored candidates go to 1v1 match. Whoever voted best by most people wins election!
Advanced Version
In this election, a voter gives each candidate an integer score from 1 to 5, with 1 representing no approval and 5 representing full approval. Not voting for a candidate gives a score of 0. The top two highest scoring candidates go on to a separate runoff. In this runoff, which ever candidate was scored highest by a larger percent wins.

Bob: Aw man we’re going to have to only vote for one person so I have to choose the candidate I think will win and who I like more, not the candidate I genuinely like!
Mark: Well with STAR Voting you can vote for as many people as you want, and your vote will count even if your top pick doesn’t win!
