Watch on YouTube

This is a YouTube video titled "Final 5 Voting" containing a discussion between two speakers explaining the concept of Final Five voting, a proposed electoral reform involving non-partisan primaries and ranked choice voting, recorded on June 28, 2020. The conversation focuses on how this voting system aims to improve political representation and competition.

So explain Final Five voting.
Okay, so Final Five voting is the name for how we should vote to fix these problems. So first of all, with Final Five voting we get rid of party primaries. You'll still have a primary, but it will be a non-partisan primary. So it's just one ballot, every candidate running Democrats, Republicans, Independents, Greens, You know, new party runs on the same ballot and the top five finishers advance to the general election. Then we have Republican Democrat? Republican? Oh, you can have.
Two Republicans, two Democrats.
And an independent. Or you can have five Democrats or.
Five Republicans, depending on how you could.
And if it was a super Democratic area, you would have a very dynamic competition between different versions of Democrats. Not everybody's the same. There's no way to reflect the diversity of ideas and solutions and thoughts of the public. So now you've got five. You've got a great debate in the general election. And then in the general election, we make one change, which is we implement something called ranked choice voting.
