  1. Combined, they received 1.88% of the vote. The shear number of Independent candidates was probably the lead contributing factor in the low number of votes for them. Not that gaining votes was the purpose of this.

  2. How many voters voted for folks having the same last name in kissing cousins Tennland ???

    Will the Tenn regime strike back — against bed sheet ballots ???

    Are junk ballots re-cycled ???

    PR and AppV

  3. It’s too bad that the Libertarian Party of Tennessee wasn’t permitted to hear about the United Coalition USA’s win in 2012, the only POTUS primary that fell before the national LP convention.

    Our team, with the help of key Republicans, plus Roseanne Barr (Rosanearchist), Tiffany Briscoe (Green Tea) and Miss Joy Waymire and others were among the dozen candidates who
    coordinated as one to bring the victory of 52.7% but the Libertarian Party bosses made sure no one at the convention could speak about our win.

    Had the TN candidates learned how diverse people can find common values on which to unite then perhaps more progress for important solutions to civil rights issues could start to be addressed

    Instead the policy of division and is guiding the LP with “Mr Veto”, the self proclaimed “answer to the two-party system” and Mr Nicholas “bring NOTA” Sarwark are setting policy.

    The LP has recently adopted Approval Voting in their executive, and that brings a one party system when used in single-winner districts and disproportionate results in multi-winner districts, where the majority tends to win a super-majority under approval voting.

    If you’re interested in pure proportional representation (PPR) our team is already establishing the PPR Electoral College and we welcome the interest of those who unite for national elections under PPR.

    Not Approval Voting, according to one source, the Jefferson / Burr tie in electoral votes was due to Approval Voting, but has since lost favor.

    If you are lost about how pure proportional representation works, we have been bringing the concept to the table for more than twenty-three consecutive years while being snuffed out by the status quo party bosses because they already know everything and the system for voting is fine so bl9ckibg outsiders is appropriate.

    The PPR Electoral College and all PPR voting systems, work perfect for setting correct policy, for bringing a united message and a united plan, on the national level.

  4. PPR works especially well with large numbers of people or decision-items, on one ballot for electing a team or multiple decision-items simultaneously, because of the nature of ranked choice voting (RCV).

    By using RCV we’re not worried about large numbers on on ballot, in fact we like that, but only under PPR will it work properly.

  5. How many folks in the PPR universe before a MOB scene happens ???

    — OR — only online votes of the zillions of chosen folks ???

    How many folks determine what the PPR universe folks vote on ??? —

    aka agenda CONTROL.

    MORE or LESS control freak statism in the current PPR universe — that *policy* stuff ???

  6. Good questions and we appreciate the interest.

    One person can nominate on agenda but it really depends on which agenda.

    We use email voting and since we are not promoting the nomination procedures we’re able to keep volume of nominations low.

    That’s good for web design responsibilities so that we don’t get overwhelmed with updates of nominations and votes.

    The United Coalition’s elections can be by internet or paper ballots or a combination of the two, and each election had different guidelines.

    Our main election for 2019 and 2020, the PPR Electoral College, uses only paper ballots. But nominations are now being recieved by email, facebook messaging and telephone.

    We do have about 1400 registered members and currently gaining an average of about 2 to 4 new sign-ups per day. Sign-ups are sometimes counted as votes for their own name, which elects the new signup into various roles which get rotated weekly or bi-weekly.

    It’s an interesting and dynamic event, signing up registered votes and also factoring new votes, now twenty-three consecutive years, a sort of supply and demand and the procedure changes as we streamline, evolve and advance.

  7. 1) Which ones are Tennessee Libertarian Party? 2) What was the total vote for them?

  8. The best performing candidates appear to have some sort of web presence. It may also have been an advantage to be at the top or bottom of the list of candidates who were alphabetically ordered. The first two and last three were all among the top 7 independents (this may be coincidence)

    Sherry Clark the top vote getter has a radio show in Knoxville and was second on the list.

    the three W’s did exceptionally well in Davidson County (Nashville) I STRONGLY SUSPECT that this is due to ballot presentation.

    Shelby County (Memphis) results are quite odd. It is as if the candidates were laid out in two columnns with the candidates listed in alternate columns. But the results are shown by column.

    Yvonne Neubert is an exception. She was a Green Party candidate who emphasized were pro-cannabis views.

  9. How soon before the gerrymander hacks wipe out ALL *easy* ballot access laws in ALL States —

    using the Tenn Guv joke/mock election as an excuse ???
