Let’s protect our wins and keep the momentum going!

Give to FairVote Minnesota today and have your donation matched!

2025 was a year of tremendous momentum for Ranked Choice Voting (RCV) and for our work to strengthen democracy through education and public engagement. Voters in Minneapolis, St. Paul, Bloomington, Minnetonka, and St. Louis Park once again demonstrated how well RCV works—turning out in record numbers, ranking their ballots with confidence, and electing leaders with broad, majority support.

FairVote Minnesota’s year-round education and outreach programs are the foundation of that success. Through civic education, volunteer engagement, and community partnerships, we help voters, candidates, and local leaders understand how RCV strengthens our democracy by giving voters more choice and voice. Our work also focuses on safeguarding democratic institutions against emerging threats and ensuring that Minnesotans have the tools and knowledge to protect fair elections.

As we look ahead to 2026, your support will help us:

• Partner with democracy allies to protect our electoral systems from federal overreach and attacks.

• Expand voter education across the state, ensuring every Minnesotan understands what RCV is and why it matters.

• Deepen partnerships and grow the RCV coalition—especially in underrepresented communities—to make electoral reform accessible and inclusive.

• Educate voters in communities preparing to adopt RCV.

• Inform and support local officials and election administrators as more cities explore RCV.

• Train and mobilize volunteers to reach new voters and civic organizations across Minnesota.

• Expand our digital presence to reach and engage audiences of all ages in building momentum for RCV.

Our ability to foster understanding and enthusiasm for RCV is essential to sustaining progress toward a more representative and responsive democracy. With your help, we can continue this vital educational work and ensure Minnesota remains at the forefront of electoral innovation.

Thanks to the generosity of our Board Chair, your gift will be matched dollar for dollar up to $10,000.

Give today to double your impact and keep Minnesota leading the way for democracy reform!

 

Why is Ranked Choice Voting so important?

Ranked Choice Voting is a simple change to the ballot but one that has the power to reduce political divisions and make our elections more civil, inclusive, representative, and responsive. At a time when partisan divisiveness and misinformation are threatening our democracy, ranked choice voting is one of the top reforms to strengthen it. 

We want to bring this critical reform across the state of Minnesota. Your donation will help us educate voters, candidates, and elected officials about the many benefits of RCV and how it will strengthen democracy in our state and country. And we have an exciting announcement: any amount you give today will be matched dollar-for-dollar! 

We would not be able to do this important work without dedicated supporters like you.

Thank you for your commitment to a stronger, more inclusive democracy.
