=== How can we convince different specific communities in the USA to support PLACE? ===
Dem incumbents: Gerrymandering hurts your team. This stops gerrymandering and helps your team. Look at these simulations: against the same opponent, you would have won the last election under PLACE, so you don't have to worry about it personally.
Dem voters: Gerrymandering hurts your team. This stops gerrymandering and helps your team. It also gives you as a voter more voice in intraparty debates.
Independent/unaffiliated voters: This would give you a chance to vote for somebody you actually liked, and not waste your vote.
Ethnic minorities, women, youth, and other underrepresented groups: This would give you effective voice and greater, more-effective representation.
Minor-party activists (Libertarians, Greens, etc.): This would let your party win a few seats immediately, and create a fair system where you could grow to be a majority party.
"#NeverTrump" Republicans: Safe seats have let an extremist primary electorate steal your party from you. This would let you take it back.
