Does your vote count? By March 7, 2000, George W. Bush and Al Gore had virtually locked up their party’s nominations for president before 33 states had the chance to conduct their own primary election. Year after year, after only a few brief contests, viable presidential candidates fall by the wayside leaving many voters frustrated and feeling that their votes don’t count. Some believe this happens because we conduct primaries using the plurality method and suggests that another method, called approval voting, would be preferable.
