Dialogue: Rethinking Elections

November 15, 2022

With the nation so deeply polarized and candidates racing to their parties’ extremes, some are looking for different ways to run elections and pick those who represent us. Proposals range from top-two open primaries and ranked-choice voting to abolishing the US Senate and the Electoral College. This edition of Dialogue will explore alternatives to our current system, which many believe needs major reform.

The program features Gene Krebs, former state legislator and advocate for ranked choice voting, Catherine Turcer, executive director of Common Cause Ohio, and Jen Miller, executive director of The League of Women Voters of Ohio. Mike Thompson, WOSU’s news and public affairs chief content director, will moderate the program.
