NEGATIVE.VOTE is a grassroots movement of people demanding a "no"​ vote to cast against one's least-preferred candidate in any given election. The current electoral system gives a structural monopoly to the extremes of two parties, which each represent just a fraction of American society. Primary Elections are a spiral in which the more extreme the candidates, the less voters are willing to be affiliated with the parties – further strengthening the grip that each extreme has on each party. Additionally, when voters must choose to allocate just one vote between two extremist groups, margins of victory are typically razor thin – making American democracy an easy target of outside influence and meddling by foreign governments. America’s adversaries capitalize on the weakness of the two-party system by attempting to rile up and divide its most polarized citizens that are most vulnerable to propaganda. hen polarized Americans see each other as enemies, the nation suffers, without regard for what most voters want out of government: solution- oriented candidates, consensus- building, and action. Instead, we get name-callers and gridlock…at best. n addition to violent skirmishes that break out occasionally between the most extreme elements that are empowered by our two-party system, there are also long-term effects of such a polarized, angry society. Something has to give, and we want to give you a negative vote to break the cycle.
