In this interactive session, we\u2019ll explore how math helps us answer that question. Students will experiment with drawing voting districts to see how drawing different district boundaries can change outcomes. They will also learn about alternative voting systems, such as ranked choice voting and approval voting, and how these might yield more representative outcomes than traditional \u201cfirst-past-the-post\u201d elections. Along the way, we\u2019ll encounter ideas like Condorcet winners, and see how Statistics can help us learn about voting patterns from limited data. Join us to discover how geometry, algorithms, and probability shape modern elections.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This GEMS session will be facilitated by Evan Rosenman from Claremont McKenna College Title:\u00a0Fair Votes?
