  1. In 2004, the state of Washington shifted from an “open” or “blanket” primary to a “pick-a-party” or “Montana” primary. The voters hate the new system. The voters are ready for a change.

    In 2004, the city/county of San Francisco shifted to Instant Runoff Voting. The voters of San Francisco liked the new system.

    Pierce County is contemplating shifting from an election system that voters don’t like to one which voters do like.
