Politics are so heated today. We are at a crisis point in our democracy as it has rapidly become so divided. How do we make sure all of our voices are heard without dividing us? Ranked Choice Voting is a simple change to the ballot that empowers voters to rank candidates in order of preference and ensures candidates earn majority support to win. It gives voters greater voice, choice and power and fosters more civil campaigns and a more representative and responsive government.
