Libertarians need Range Voting
Reader comment on: Long Love Affairs With Libertarianism

Libertarians must work work with Greens and others to implement Range Voting, or they will all suffer the fate of every single alternative party in US history - they will dissolve, or at least stop running candidates, and become something more like the NRA.

The Center for Range Voting (http://RangeVoting.org/) was created in 2005, to educate and advocate for Range Voting. The Libertarian Reform Caucus already gets it:
