Electoral Reform Society

The Electoral Reform Society (ERS) is a UK-based organization that advocates for changes in how elections are conducted and how political representation works. Founded in 1884, its mission is to promote fairer voting systems, improve democratic processes, and increase public participation in politics. The ERS supports reforms like proportional representation, which aims to ensure that election results better reflect the diversity of voters' opinions. They conduct research, campaign for legislative changes, and raise awareness about the importance of a fair electoral system to enhance democracy and accountability in government.
