Imagine a Congress that actually looks like America. It’s filled with nurses, farmers, engineers, waitresses, teachers, accountants, pastors, soldiers, stay-at-home parents, and retirees. They are conservatives, liberals, and moderates from all parts of the country and all walks of life.
Democracy without Elections is a member-run American organization that promotes the use of deliberation and democratic lotteries. These democratic lotteries are otherwise known as sortition. In a democratic lottery, legislatures or groups of leaders are selected by lottery from the common people.
Democracy Without Elections wants to make our government representative of the people. If you are committed to the same values, we welcome you to join us.
