The book titled The Preferential Ballot As A Substitute For The Direct Primary: Address Before The National Popular Government League (1915) is a political treatise written by Lewis Jerome Johnson. The book discusses the preferential ballot system and its potential as a substitute for the direct primary system in American politics. The author argues that the direct primary system, which was introduced in the early 20th century, has failed to deliver on its promises of increased voter participation and fair representation. He suggests that the preferential ballot system, which allows voters to rank their preferred candidates in order of preference, would be a more effective way to ensure that the most popular candidates are elected.Johnson provides a detailed analysis of the preferential ballot system, including its history and implementation in other countries. He also addresses common criticisms of the system and offers solutions to potential problems. Overall, this book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and evolution of American political systems, as well as those interested in voting reform and electoral politics. It provides a thorough and well-researched argument for the adoption of the preferential ballot system as a substitute for the direct primary in American politics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
