FairVote’s Week of Action featured thousands of participants learning and sharing about ranked choice voting (RCV).  We’d like to thank every single one of them for taking the time to support this movement.

The state of Utah made history last week when both the Republican and Democratic parties held their annual state conventions using #RankedChoiceVoting in conjunction with online voting.

This year four states have used #RankedChoiceVoting for their party-run presidential primaries, most recently Kansas—and, in all places, RCV promoted turnout, empowered voters, and guaranteed that no votes were “wasted.”

#RankedChoiceVoting for presidential elections just makes sense and prevents “spoilers”

While they may compete head to head come election season, a key concept unites the Utah Republican and Democratic parties: #RankedChoiceVoting

When it comes to presidential primaries, ranked choice voting (RCV) just makes sense. Need proof? Look no further than Alaska and Wyoming.

If you missed April 16th’s webinar, a conversation about the different election systems used in Wisconsin, Alaska and Washington’s for the 2020 Presidential Primaries, don’t worry—we have you covered!  

Amid the Covid-19 pandemic, we are dedicated to keeping voters safe while simultaneously maintaining the integrity of our elections. We hope the resources we have provided will help you safely navigate this chaotic time while still exercising your constitutional right to vote.

Due to the COVID-19 crisis, Alaska became the latest state to conduct an election entirely with VBM, joining Colorado, Utah, Hawaii, and Washington. This provides a stark contrast from Wisconsin’s, in which 48,875 votes were wasted.
