[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]RCV would only encourage even more people to run. It would be a friggin’ nightmare and there would be so many similar options that nothing would change and it would probably make things worse. [/quote] 1. Raise the threshold of DC-based contributors for Fair Elections. It's 150 DC-based donors + $5,000 in contributions from DC donors at the Ward level. Make it 250 donors. 2. Raise the necessary number of signatures to get on the ballot [i]in open races[/i]. It's 250 at the Ward level. Make it 500 for open races. Keep it at 250 when the incumbent runs. These two tweaks would have made some folks (Monika Nemeth) not even consider running in the first place. [/quote]
