Lisa Ayrault, Director, FairVote Washington: Lisa first learned about ranked-choice voting more than 30 years ago, when she taught a lesson to her middle school students about the mathematics of voting. Lisa is a native of Washington state. Living under a military dictatorship in Niger, Africa while serving as a Peace Corps volunteer impressed upon her the imperative to be an active steward of our democracy.
