Americans are scolded for “wasting” their vote if they don’t pick one of the two major-party candidates. That’s wrong!
Wouldn’t it be better to skip the scolding and just give voters more choices? Learn more about how to improve our elections. fairvote.org/our-reforms/ran…
Tonight's Vice Presidential debate is another reminder that Americans deserve leaders who can bridge divides, not deepen them. The Forward Party believes in putting solutions over party loyalty. It’s time for a new path in American politics. #VPDebate #BreakTheTwoPartySystem

Time for your weekly #Staturday roundup!
Ease of voting, anyone?
- In 2020, 73% of voters voted before election day—46% by mail and 27% in person.
- 17% of voters report waiting for more than 30 minutes to get into an election booth; 6% report more report waiting over an hour.

“Voters in a record number of states — including the battlegrounds of #Arizona and #Nevada — are set to decide this fall whether to enact far-reaching changes to how their elections are run.
“Most of the proposals would replace party primaries with nonpartisan contests, where all candidates, regardless of party, appear on the same ballot and some number of candidates, like the ‘top four’ vote-getters, move on to the general election.”

For mayor of San Francisco, we are proud to support Dylan Hirsch-Shell!
Dylan is an independent whose family has been in San Francisco since 1870! He wants to transcend the two-party system to show that real solutions for real people to real problems can be...real!
Dylan is a scientist and engineer by trade--exactly the type of person to craft solutions to complicated problems. He wants to collaborate across all aisles to get things done, and we encourage you to send him to City Hall to do just that!

Tonight’s debate highlighted the need for a break from the political extremes. It’s time for a movement focused on real solutions, collaboration, and a future that works for everyone. Let's move #Forward together. #Debate2024 #RankedChoiceVoting

The youngest Forward Party candidate!
Heads up, New Jersey!
We are excited to announce our endorsement of Jonathan Duff for Burlington County Commissioner!
Jonathan is the youngest Forward-affiliated candidate so far, at just 23 years old. He represents the future of what leadership in this country should embody.
A democracy defender to the core, Jonathan lives by and would govern by Forward values. He is determined to bring economic opportunity to more people and to ensure that our communities are safe.
Send him to the County Commission!
Biden's announcement to step down marks a pivotal moment in American politics. It's time to rethink our leadership and embrace new voices. Let's move #NotLeftNotRightForward together. #YoungForwardists #NewEra
