Electoral Reform Research
The Political Reform program produces original research on how electoral rules shape participation, representation, policy, and governance. We examine reforms such as fusion voting and proportional representation, which aim to strengthen political parties, expand electoral competition, and support a more functional and resilient democracy.

Our work draws on partnerships with pro-democracy organizations, including Protect Democracy, Stanford University’s Center on Democracy, Development, and the Rule of Law, and the Center for Ballot Freedom. This portfolio also builds on earlier research on ranked-choice voting conducted through the Electoral Reform Research Group, a collaboration with the American Enterprise Institute, Stanford CDDRL, and Unite America.
