==History and current environment==
[[FairVote]] has been advocating [[IRV]] and [[STV]] since 1992, and is currently the largest voting reform organization in the US. [[The Center for Election Science]] (CES) implemented its first [[Approval voting]] ballot measure in 2018. The [[Equal Vote Coalition]] narrowly lost a ballot measure for [[STAR voting]] in 2018, and is trying again in 2020.
