A coalition of voting rights groups will be holding a forum entitled "21st Century Politics, 18th Century Elections: Why Our Electoral Process is Not Suited for Modern-Day America." The event is slated for 7 p.m. on Monday, Feb. 3, at the Raytheon Amphitheater, in the Egan Center at Northeastern University.

The forum will focus on the problems inherent in our voting system, and review potential solutions to those problems, including instant runoff voting. Moderated by attorney and voting rights activist John Bonifaz, the forum panelists include author Steven Hill, Kennedy School professor Alexander Keyssar, and 2002 gubernatorial candidate Dr. Jill Stein.

The event is being sponsored by the MassIRV, Northeastern University, Common Cause, and the Center for Voting and Democracy.
