Upcoming Events

FairVote Illinois will be tabling at the Fall 2026 Volunteer Fair organized by Trash People to talk to people about ranked choice voting and find new supporters to join the cause.  The more people who learn about RCV, the faster we'll grow the movement. This is an especially important even because everyone who attends is looking to volunteer. Look for our table with the purple FairVote Illinois banner! Don't have any experience canvassing/tabling? That's OK! No experience is required. We can give you a brief training when you arrive!  Our table captain will have supplies like signup sheets, sample ballots, and clipboards.

FairVote Illinois will be at Austin Town Hall Farmers Market to raise awareness about ranked choice voting and collect sign-ups to support the cause. We’d love to have you join us!

We’ll start off the day at 4PM by meeting at the entrance at 5610 W Lake St. Feel free to join and leave anytime; just look for the people with the clipboards (and purple ranked choice voting shirts).

If you’ve never done canvassing or tabling before, never fear! It’s easy to get started and our experienced volunteers can show you the ropes.  We’ll also have supplies (e.g. signup sheets, sample ballots, poster cards); just bring you!

Join us for a presentation at the Woodstock Library about ranked choice voting (RCV), co-organized by the McHenry County Libertarians! Whether RCV is totally new to you, you are a superfan, or you believe RCV is a trick that only helps the political party you don’t like, come join a discussion about how it works and how it might help improve our elections. All points of view are welcome!

FairVote Illinois will be at 61st Street Farmers Summer Market to raise awareness about ranked choice voting and collect sign-ups to support the cause. We’d love to have you join us!

We’ll start off the day at 10AM by meeting at the entrance at 6100 S Blackstone Ave. Feel free to join and leave anytime; just look for the people with the clipboards (and purple ranked choice voting shirts).
