SPRINGFIELD (Illinois News Network) -- Fair Vote, a non-partisan election reform group, advocates for a move to ranked-choice voting.

COMMENTARY: The establishment choices in Illinois are horrible. Vote different.

An unmitigated disaster that is the two-party system with one-party rule in Illinois and America contributed to such a dismal showing in Tuesday's primary election. That disaster comes in the form of two establishment representatives of the Republican and Democratic parties.

SARASOTA, Fla. (Heartland Newsfeed) -- While a February special election resulted in some level of disappointment to Florida Libertarians, the record amount of money raised for Florida House candidate Alison Foxall -- who barely cracked 3 percent of the vote in the special election in House District 72 -- but leaders of the Libertarian Party of Florida and its local chapter see a silver lining in this race, building up the foundation for a broader party presence in the November 6 […]
