It’s already been implemented in some States and municipalities across the country. If yours isn’t one of them, it could be. There are several orgs trying to get this done such as Rank The Vote. Check to see if you have a local chapter and how you can help them!
More education is definitely needed - that’s the stage the movement is at. But you (whoever is reading this) could be the one to educate people. The emphasis of most of these local chapters is education, and they’ll teach you how, where, and when to educate people.
