Study backs idea that GOP talk of "rigging" may have blown control of U.S. Senate in 2021 by discouraging their own voters.

As more Americans look beyond the two major parties, fusion voting could be a first step toward a multi-party democracy—helping minor parties build capacity, push for reforms like proportional representation, and giving voters experience supporting alternatives. @oscarp.bsky.social @newamerica.org

"This is where #ProportionalRepresentation comes in. Instead of asking only, 'Which single dessert wins?' it asks a different question: if we are going to share this table, how many different desserts should be on it, and how do we decide which ones?" www.civilbeat.org/2026/01/beth...
