Did you hear that STAR Voting was recently used for the first time in a municipal election in Astoria, Oregon?
We received the good news the Astoria election had taken place when one of our volunteers, Lynn McConnell, got a personal email back from her city councilor.

After several months, the Los Angeles Charter Commission has decided not to pursue STAR Voting as a reform at this time, citing the fact that it is a relatively new innovation. We are super grateful to our amazing LA chapter volunteers who worked incredibly hard on this!

Volunteers recently got together in Portland to fold and staple STAR Voting minizines. Big thank you to the volunteers!
These zines are a great way to spread the word about STAR Voting at events, while tabling, while canvassing, or any time!
