People across California and across the country are fighting for more political representation than offered by the two-party duopoly.
How can we get to a multi-party democracy? What does the experience of the Green Party in the U.S. and around the world tell us about this challenge? How would politics in California and the United States be different under a multi-party democracy, that included proportional representation, ranked choice voting and public financing of elections?
