-
Majority Winners Guaranteed
Gone are the days of politicians winning elections with only a tiny fraction of the votes. Under RCV, candidates are required to have more than 50% support to win.
-
Support Multiple Candidates
Ranked choice voting allows voters to rank multiple candidates in order of preference, enabling you to vote for the candidate you love while still supporting the candidate you like.
-
More Civility
With ranked choice voting, candidates are not just competing to be voters’ favorite choice, they’re also competing to be their opponent’s voters’ second or third favorite choice, resulting in more positivity and cooperation.
