The U.S. House has passed a major election‑law overhaul (Save America Act) imposing stricter voting rules nationwide. While focused mainly on voter ID and registration requirements, it is part of a broader legislative push tied to proposals that include or have been linked to bans on ranked‑choice voting and other non‑plurality systems.

Meanwhile, in Indiana, legislation to ban ranked‑choice voting (despite it not being used) continues moving through the state legislature,
While we think our proposals (including our Equal Voter Amendment) are better than ranked-choice, we support all efforts to make the US more, not less, democratic. As they say, "Don't let the perfect be the enemy of the good.”


The latest

The True Democracy Project is a non-partisan effort dedicated to restoring actual majority rule in the United States.


Our goal is simple: every election should produce a winner supported by more than half of the voters. No loopholes. No split-vote victories. No gaming the system.


The project promotes structural reforms that give every voter equal power in choosing their leaders—local, state, and federal.


We focus on clarity, fairness, and simplicity, and we are committed to making these ideas accessible to the public through research, conversation, and real-world examples.

Every vote must be equal.


No American should have more political power because of where they live or which party controls the map.


Majority rule is the minimum standard.


No one should win office with 30% or 40% of the vote. If no candidate earns 50%, there must be a runoff.


End gerrymandering completely.


Voters should choose their representatives — not the other way around.


One ballot for everyone.


All candidates on the same ballot, all voters participating equally, and a true majority winner.


Fix structural distortions.


The Electoral College and the Senate’s population imbalance are two of the longest-standing examples of structural inequality in American representation.


Read a message from the founder.

The Equal Voter Amendment is a proposed constitutional standard to ensure that:


  • Every elected office requires a true majority to win
  • Elections are non-partisan
  • All candidates appear on the same ballot
  • Every voter has equal power
  • Runoffs occur automatically if no candidate reaches 50%+1
  • No party, district, or region is given extra influence


The Equal Voter Amendment is designed to be simple, enforceable, and transparent—an update to the rules of democracy that reflects the needs of today, not 1789.

In 2026, the Illinois Ninth Congressional District Democratic Primary is a near-perfect example of how majority rule can fail: a crowded field with the possibility of a nominee supported by far less than half the electorate.


Our documentary uses the IL-9 primary as a real-world backdrop to demonstrate how the Equal Voter Amendment would work in practice—not by predicting or altering real results, but by showing how a majority-based process will consistently produce more representative outcomes.


The Ninth District becomes a clear case study of how elections can better reflect the will of the voters—and what changes when the system is modified to ensure it.


Perform our anthem for the documentary.
