Washington, D.C. council members voted to approve funding for ranked choice voting July 14 in the first of two votes on the District’s budget.
The measure, known as Initiative 83, would allow unaffiliated voters to participate in the party primary of their choosing and gives voters the option to rank candidates on the ballot from their most desired contender to the least.
The winning candidate must receive more than 50 percent of votes to advance as the elected official. If no candidate wins that majority, then an “instant runoff” occurs: The candidate who received the fewest first-choice rankings is eliminated, and voters who ranked the now-eliminated candidate first have their ballots added to the totals of their next-choice candidate, according to the Campaign Legal Center.
D.C. Council members affirmed support for Initiative 83 in an 8-4 vote during the council’s budget hearing after a majority of Washingtonians voted in favor of ranked choice voting in the November election.

Lol. It’s been so close lately.
Don’t they mean ranked choice skin color voting?
And the start of dominating the mid terms begins.
18 months left to get whatever we need done.
After that, it’ll all grind to a halt
I believe so.
I guess they don’t even have to bother campaigning anymore
Ranked Choice Cheating.
Glorified find the pea under the shell con job is what ranked choice voting is .
That and stealing my vote and giving it to someone i didn’t vote for .
Dems know all the scams
What worked in Alaska to squish Palin can work anywhere. Democracy saved from fair representative republic procedures again...yay!(/s)
Another reason to decentralize the central government by distributing branch offices all across the states. At this point NO judicial hearings except local and traffic should be held in District of Columbia.
In fact, it should be civically dissolved and returned to Maryland, leaving just the Executive, Congressional, Judicial, Monuments, Museums and Parks and Library remaining.
A buddy is involved trying to stop this stupidity in his state. At a recent hearing the proponents were shocked to have actual organized opposition.
Eventually they will have RCV in every blue state.
I’d make a hefty bet that the origins of ranked choice voting are liberal.
Yup, time has come to abolish the city government and for Congress or the Administration to take back control of DC.
RCV needs to be outlawed.
That’s the way to get Communists onto a ballot without traditional party backers at first.
Then smile for the big crowds.
RCV needs to be outlawed.
I was just ready to say that.
The stupidest, sneakiest, evil con game I’ve ever seen
ABSOLUTELY...OUTLAW IT. It’s insanity.
Afro-demokracy.
shell game afoot once again
RCV is among the most onerous of Libturd plans, in keeping with the tenets of their gods...Cloward and Piven.
