The Humanist Society of Iowa is promoting a Day of Advocacy at the Iowa State Fair. We would like to help Better Ballot Iowa (BBI) by helping to man their booth at the Iowa State Fair.
If you attended the Iowa Secular Summit this year you heard David Gion of Better Ballot Iowa discuss ranked choice voting. It is a non-partisan political innovation that reduces the incentives for polarization and negative campaigning and could be an answer to feeling like you are voting for the lesser of two evils.
Better Ballot Iowa is taking on the challenge of bringing ranked choice voting to Iowa, as done in Maine and Alaska, and many municipalities around the country.
Please click the link below to sign up for a 3-hour shift in the air conditioned varied industry building. Participants will get free entry and parking, and be eligible for a free meal if they request reimbursement. If people wish we can meet after a shift and hang out at the fair together. You can see who has signed up before you pick a shift. We can use up to three people per shift. Training on how to work the booth will be provided before the fair via Zoom.
