Our voting system is broken, but it doesn't have to stay that way.

STAR Voting is all about the idea that we should be able to vote our conscience, our votes should never be wasted, and our elections should accurately reflect the will of the people.

STAR stands for Score Then Automatic Runoff, and that's exactly how it works:

Voters score candidates from 0 up to 5 stars.

Ballots are counted in two rounds:

• Scoring Round: Add up all the stars from all the ballots. The two highest scoring are finalists.
• Automatic Runoff: Your one full vote goes to the finalist you scored higher. The finalist with the most votes wins.

• Honesty is the best strategy. Strategic voting is not incentivized.

• Highly accurate, no matter how many candidates/parties are in the race.

• No parties, candidates, or voters are excluded. Doesn't give anyone an unfair advantage.

• Every voter has an equally weighted vote.

• Combats the influence of money in politics.

• Even if your favorite can’t win, your vote helps prevent your worst case scenario.

• Can be locally tabulated using the current process.

• Fully constitutional in Oregon, and around the country. This is a nationally viable proposal.

• Fights polarization.
