Ranked Choice Voting is a system where you rank candidates in order of preference, and if your top choice doesn’t win, your vote goes to your next choice until someone gets a majority. It has multiple benefits including: 

• • Reduces Vote-Splitting – Similar candidates can't steal each other’s votes, allowing progressives to support their top choices without fear of "splitting" the election and encouraging third-party candidates.

  • Weakens the Lesser-Evil Guilt – Voters don’t have to settle for the "electable" option; they can rank their true preferences.  

  • Levels of the Playing Field – Newcomers and grassroots candidates can win by building broad coalitions instead of relying on financial backing from corporate establishments.  

  • Rewards Coalition-Building – Candidates succeed by appealing to a diverse base, not just a narrow primary electorate.  

  • Reduces the Power of Big Money – Big money (or dark money) candidates have a harder chance of winning because they can no longer rely on misinformation, fear-mongering, and attack ads.

  • Challenges Incumbent Advantage – Encourages new people in politics by making it easier for challengers to run. 

  • Reduces Voter Disenfranchisement – Makes elections more representative of the electorate, particularly for younger, more diverse voters.
