Ranked choice voting: The Left’s latest scheme to permanently change elections in America

Recommendable! This ranked choice voting seems to be an important, controversial issue for more than one reason. Apparently, it makes it more difficult for a voter to figure out the consequences of one's voting. The outcomes may be more unpredictable and not reflecting the will of the majority.

Caveat: I am not very familiar with the pros and cons of this voting scheme.

"... As we speak, liberal special interests are leading a sophisticated national campaign to push ranked choice voting in nearly every state. They have hired lobbyists, formed astroturf activist groups, and are financing state ballot measures across the country. This year alone, more than a half-dozen states, including battlegrounds such as Arizona and Nevada, are facing initiatives to change their elections with ranked choice voting. ...

In fact, ranked choice voting makes voting harder and puts the public’s trust in elections in jeopardy. ..."

Should We Raise the Voting Age?

Caveat: I did not read the article, but the title raises an interesting question! Food for thought!

The usual trend in Western democracies was to lower the voting age further and further! Even age 16 has been considered!

How mature are actually 18 year old individuals to make mature, experienced, and reasonable judgments about ongoing politics/policies? How easy are these young people influenced by some propaganda and demagoguery? 

The standard argument and default, automatic rule was that adults are allowed to do anything else may not apply to voting! Let young adults gather some or more real world experiences etc. before voting! 😊

In my opinion, the more proper voting age would be 20 and older!

How polygamy helped Utah women get the right to vote

Recommendable! What a story! Utah was the first state to introduce voting rights for women in 1870! To link polygamy and suffrage in such a way as happened in this article is a feminist plot!

"And as the national battle over polygamy continued, Congress stripped Utah women of their suffrage in 1887. They would regain the right to vote when Utah became a state in 1896."

Utah/Mormons should have never given up polygamy to become a state of the union!
