This fall, Portlanders will not only be picking a new mayor and a whole new City Council; they’ll also be using ranked choice voting to do it. The entirely new system to select candidates is coming to our city, and there’s even an effort to institute it statewide too. It’s pretty different from what we’re used to. So today on City Cast Portland, ranked choice voting project manager for Multnomah County Elections, Leah Benson, is here to help us make sense of this new system.
Practice your ranked choice voting skills with our mock pizza election ballot: https://app.rankedvote.co/rv/dl15v95oxnth3g22d5/vote
