An email exchange between Larry Summers and Eric Maskin dated September 11, 2018. They discuss a meeting held earlier that day regarding a project involving Adam Friedman. The conversation focuses on political theory, specifically the merits of Ranked Choice Voting (RCV) versus plurality rule, and its potential impact on political polarization and election outcomes (citing Nader/Bush scenarios). The document appears to be part of a House Oversight production.

An email exchange between Eric Maskin and Lawrence Summers (LHS) discussing the merits and drawbacks of Ranked Choice Voting (RCV). Maskin argues RCV favors centrists and could have altered the 2016 election outcome for Clinton, while Summers raises concerns about complexity depressing turnout among specific demographics and mentions pitching the idea to an unnamed individual earlier that day.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_026508.jpg
This document is an email thread from September 2018 involving Jeffrey Epstein (under the alias Jeffrey E./jeevacation), Larry Summers, and Eric Maskin. Summers forwards an exchange he had with Maskin regarding empirical studies on voting turnout to Epstein. Epstein replies with a link to a Cato Institute article about ranked-choice voting, commenting that the arguments seem like a 'big nothingburger.'

This document is an email chain from September 11, 2018, between Larry Summers and Eric Maskin concerning the political implications of Ranked-Choice Voting (RCV). They discuss RCV's potential to promote centrism, its hypothetical effect on the 2016 US presidential election, and concerns about its complexity depressing turnout among minority and low-income voters. Although requested in the context of an Epstein-related query, this document contains no mention of Jeffrey Epstein, his associates (other than Summers in a non-Epstein context), or any related activities.
This morning (inferred from reply)
Eric Maskin thanks Larry Summers for a meeting that morning, expresses seriousness about working on a project related to voting theory, and outlines the formal argument that Ranked-Choice Voting (RCV) promotes centrism more effectively than plurality rule.
Re: This morning
Larry Summers acknowledges Maskin's formal argument but raises questions about aspects not in the model, such as candidates from the extremes. He also mentions pitching the idea to someone who raised concerns that RCV's complexity might depress turnout among African American and lower-income voters, and asks for evidence on this.
