what is Ranked-Choice Voting (RCV)?

About

Ranked-choice voting (RCV) is a type of ranked preferential voting method used in single-seat elections with more than two candidates.

How it works Ballots are initially counted for each voter's top choice. If a candidate has more than half of the vote based on first-choices, that candidate wins. If not, then the candidate with the fewest votes is eliminated. The voters who selected the defeated candidate as a first choice then have their votes added to the totals of their next choice. This process continues until a candidate has more than half of the votes. When the field is reduced to two, it has become an "instant runoff" that allows a comparison of the top two candidates head-to-head. (from wiki)

Visit Power Voter for more candidate info, e.g. Asian Republican candidates.

its another scheme by the rats to control our country forever...

in my state the rats who control everything pushed thru this special voting help for the indians.....I think now they don't have to really present an id or an address to register and vote....

what this means in the off year elections they can drift across state or county lines to vote without any hassles...

RCV is fraud.

Only one true vote exists. What you see is what you get.

RCV fraudulantly selects what the people did not vote upon.

Plurality is the ONLY true valid vote.
Majority is fabrication in Elections.

Majority is sought in a Congress where repeatable voting is simple.
Democrats bait and switch that into an election. Elections are huge and expensive. They can only do plurality.

An Election does plurality. A Representative Congress does majority.

Democrat RCV fraud confuses Congress with Election, and plurality with majority.

Democrats always Lie.

Maine? If so, I’m one of those indians. I currently live out of state where there are more jobs, but I’m insulted they think we’re all too stupid to figure out voting, I worry more that some of us probably know how to vote more than once,
