FairVote (formerly the Center for Voting and Democracy) is a 501(c)(3) organization that advocates electoral reform in the United States.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.fairvote.org/who-we-are/who-we-are-2/ )〕 Founded in 1992 as the Citizens for Proportional Representation to support the implementation of proportional representation in American elections, the organization in 1993 became the Center for Voting and Democracy and in 2004 changed its name to FairVote, to reflect its support of such platforms as instant-runoff voting (IRV) for single-winner elections, a national popular vote for president, a right to vote amendment to the Constitution, and universal voter registration.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=https://www.mtholyoke.edu/acad/polit/damy/PRWebSites/PRWebSites.htm )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.fairvote.org/reforms/ )〕 FairVote also releases regular publications on the state of the U.S. electoral system, including ''Dubious Democracy''〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.fairvote.org/research-and-analysis/congressional-elections/dubious-democracy/dubious-democracy-1982-2010/ )〕 and ''Monopoly Politics''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.fairvote.org/research-and-analysis/congressional-elections/monopoly-politics-2014-and-the-fair-voting-solution/ )〕 Other projects, such as ''Representation 2020'' and "Promote Our Vote", aim for increased voter participation and equitable representation of women.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.representation2020.com/about.html )〕 The organization supports other groups that advocate alternative electoral practices, including FairVote Minnesota.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://fairvotemn.org/foundation )〕 Notable members of FairVote's Board of Directors include John Anderson, a former Congressman who ran as an independent candidate for President in 1980, and Krist Novoselic, formerly the bassist for Nirvana. ==About== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「FairVote」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
