Good governance and electoral reform seems to be the current flavor of the week in Rhode Island politics.
Whole political futures now hinge on ideas such as:
elimination of the master lever, Governor and Lieutenant Governor running mates, a constitutional convention (i.e. con-con) and more.
However, these reforms could take months, or even years, that is, if they actually ever come to fruition.
I ask you to consider what can be done now, today, and prior to election 2014 to support good governance and electoral reform.
Recently, on The Coalition radio show on AM 790 WPRV we hosted civic leader Ray Rickman (The podcast is posted below) tune-in to around 46 minutes into the show, where Mr. Rickman informs us; "Block Island has double the number of registered voters as it does adults who are legally able to vote"
I hope some of the reformers are listening...
