Shadow Politics with Senator Michael D. Brown

Initiative 83 - Ranked Choice Voting YES or NO - With Guest, Political Strategist, Lisa D.T. Rice

Voting for five people for every office; does it make sense? Expand our democracy, increase voter participation, too complicated, votes thrown out — what's the truth? Should we vote "yes" or should we vote "no"? Tune in and hear both sides of the debate, which will be resolved on November 5th. Rank your vote or stay the course — what does the next election hold for Washingtonians?

Lisa D.T. Rice is a political strategist — passionate about reform and political innovation. Rice is active in bringing productive change to U.S. politics. An independent, Lisa advocates for a stronger American democracy rooted in active participation by a plurality of citizens and loosening the grip of the two-party duopoly.

Rice holds a master’s degree in management from the MIT Sloan School and a BA degree from the Newcomb College of Tulane University. A native Washingtonian, Lisa lives in the District of Columbia with her husband. Her son, also a graduate of Tulane University, teaches in the DC Public Schools system.>
