MCLP Ranked Choice Voting forum
Where: China Village
Date: 2007-04-23 18:30:00
Type:
The Maricopa County LP is going to host a forum on ranked choice voting (RCV) in which we are looking into the possibility of spearheading an effort to run an RCV initiative in a city in Maricopa County. If you do attend, please call 602-248-8425 to RSVP. Ranked choice voting is quietly being enacted in municipalities nationwide and, if implemented, it would make it easier to elect Libertarians and other third party candidates to office. The MCLP would welcome anyone who wants to participate in this forum by offering ideas, suggestions and a willingness to assist in some manner to make enacting this voting method in Arizona a reality. For a demonstration on ranked choice voting (a.k.a. instant runoff voting), please visit http://www.instantrunoff.com. For information on which municipalities now use ranked choice voting for their elections, please visit the Center for Voting and Democracy's website: http://www.fairvote.org. NOTE: Please be aware that I promised the manager of China Village that everyone would buy something to eat in order for our group to use their banquet room for our meetings. His deal is: "each person buys something to eat or the group pays a $10 charge."
Men of the Deeps

Men of the Deeps Friday, January 25 7:30pm adults $32 / students $5 From the seemingly endless depths of Cape Breton’s coal mines emerges a sound unlike any other. The richly sonorous choir Men of the Deeps is a compilation of current and former mine workers that have become a worldwide phenomenon. Since their debut in 1966, the choir has toured the world extensively, spreading the rich cultural heritage of their community. The choir was honored to be the first Canadian group to tour China following the restoration of diplomatic relations. Still performing in their workmen’s hats and uniforms, these men are the real-deal and have overcome adversity with their faith and beautiful songs. www.menofthedeeps.com
