Founded in 2011, The Center for Election Science is a national, nonpartisan nonprofit focused on voting reform.
Our Mission — To empower people with voting methods that strengthen democracy.
Our Vision — A world where democracies thrive because voters’ voices are heard.
With an emphasis on approval voting, we bring better elections to people across the country through both advocacy and research.
The movement for a better way to vote is rapidly gaining momentum as voters grow tired of election results that don’t represent the will of the people. In 2018, we worked with locals in Fargo, ND to help them become the first city in the U.S. to adopt approval voting. And in 2020, we helped grassroots activists empower the 300k people of St. Louis, MO with stronger democracy through approval voting.
Get started by checking out our examples repo which evaluates and describes various different voting methods.
Most if not all of our open source projects welcome contributions and issues. If you'd like to propose your own project, please mention it to us on our discord.
