The Nevada Un-Caucus

LAS VEGAS, NEVADA — The results are in. That’s nice, but we’ve been here looking into why turnout for the Nevada caucuses has been so historically poor, what that means, and why it worked out better this time around. The big-picture question: is our voting system broken?

Jacob,
Great piece. I couldn’t agree more, it’s like how broken is that? By making it a caucus, less people actually turn out. In a town on a 24 hour clock, why would you make it only possible to vote during one hour of the day? That was a crazy day wasn’t it?
Our video will go up later this week, let’s talk asap. We’ll be in LA to cover the Dem/Rep debates, if we get the credentials.
thanks

Why we should agree to change the voting system on the recommendation of someone who doesn’t know the difference between “less” and “fewer” isn’t clear.
