🗳️ Ranked Choice Voting isn’t complicated—it’s common sense. Instead of being forced into choosing “the lesser of two evils,” voters get to rank their choices and make their voices count more fully.
In this episode, we dive into why RCV is gaining ground across the country, how it leads to fairer outcomes, reduces negative campaigning, and opens the door for more candidates to run without spoiling the race. We’ll break down real-world examples, from Maine and Alaska to local experiments in Virginia, and explain why this simple reform could transform American democracy.
👉 If you’ve ever walked out of a voting booth wishing you had more than one option, this conversation will show you why Ranked Choice Voting just makes sense.
