"I have said it before and I will continue to say it: calling for electoral reform in Montreal is the only viable way to ensure better democratic representation. ...I call on the people of Montreal who support this idea...to write to your elected officials and put pressure on them. Make some noise. Your voice is strong and it has an impact." ~ @CraigSauve

@CraigSauve "A record number of people felt unrepresented and uninspired by the two old parties. In response, these parties ramped up their fear campaigns and called for strategic voting. But you know as well as I do that this cannot be a long-term solution: by holding our noses and voting for ‘the least worst’ option, our democracy will eventually run out of air."

Arnold Schwarzenegger reminds us that he is, deep down, a right-wing Republican. Don't buy his "democratic principles" bullshit for a second as he condemns California's essential-to-pass response to Republican election rigging.

@span dangillmor Or maybe he genuinely thinks Newsom's plan is not an effective way to fight Trump? Schwarzenegger is the guy who passed prop 11 to take redistricting authority away from legislators in the first place and passed prop 14 to establish open primaries in Cal. Newsom is the guy who vetoed #rankedchoicevoting and went on the Charlie Kirk show to see if throwing trans people under the bus would boost his numbers. One of these guys is an opportunistic partisan hack and it's not Arnold.
