This is an in person program that will include an explanation and real-time demonstration of four different voting methods: Ranked-Choice Voting, Plurality, Condorcet and Approval Voting so that participants can quickly see how these different methods affect results.

Speakers will be Ohio Senator Louis Blessing, III, who has introduced SB 395, which enables a top-three primary, consensus general election system (aka the Condorcet method), and Matt Koesters, Founder and President of Fortify Democracy, a nonprofit organization promoting Approval Voting. Lucy May, host of Cincinnati Edition on WVXU, will moderate.

 Senate Bill 395, akin to the Condorcet method, would implement a top-three primary and consensus general election system in Ohio. This bill aims to address concerns about political extremism and money in politics by capturing the benefits of Ranked-Choice Voting with none of its flaws. The bill starts with a top-three primary, where all candidates run in the same primary irrespective of party, with the top three advancing to the November general. This system is designed to ensure that candidates speak to all voters, rather than just their base, and to reduce the influence of moneyed interests in elections.
