FairVote's new research intern Nawar explains his background and inspiration for working in electoral reform

Hi, I’m Alyssa Pooler, a rising third year student at Villanova University in the joint JD/Master of Public Administration program and a new legal intern with FairVote’s Law and Policy department.

We must work to change a system that actively undermines self-governance and yet brands itself a “democracy.”

It’s not a partisan matter of red or blue; it is a matter of giving all voters a greater voice and more fair representation for everyone.

New outreach intern

Kendrik Icenhour is a development and fundraising intern at FairVote and Represent Women.

Meet Alex Ault, new law and policy intern.

Meet Joel Nair,new intern in our Research Department at FairVote.

Reid Buskirk currently serves as an intern in FairVote’s communications department. He is a first year student at the University of Maryland - College Park, majoring in Government & Politics as well as English & Rhetorical Analysis.

I am excited for the opportunity to work for an organization that advocates for meaningful structural reform of America’s electoral system, so it can be more representative and inclusive of everyone.
