Electoral reform in Vermont : ウィキペディア英語版 | Electoral reform in Vermont Electoral reform in Vermont describes how changes in electoral practices alter how election results represent the intent of Vermont voters. Currently, Burlington, Vermont uses instant runoff voting in its elections, having voted to do so on March 1, 2005.〔(Burlington IRV Vote ), Ballot Access News, March 5, 2005 – Volume 20, Number 11.〕 As of April 13, 2007, IRV legislation was headed for the Vermont Senate floor.〔(IRV bill headed to Senate floor ), Terri Hallenbeck, Burlington Free Press, April 13th 2007.〕 Vermont has one Congressional district, so gerrymandering is not a consideration in Vermont federal races. Vermont and Maine are the only states to allow prison inmates to vote.〔(Overview and Summary Losing the Vote: The Impact of Felony Disenfranchisement Laws in the United States ), Human Rights Watch.〕 In 2007, H.0373 was introduced by David Zuckerman, Anne Donahue, and others in an effort to make Vermont a party to the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact, but it died in the Government Operations committee.〔(H.0373 ), The Vermont Legislative Bill Tracking System.〕 ==References==
