RANKED CHOICE NOTES

May 2022

Friends,

Are you excited?  Next month, small but mighty Alaska will debut ranked choice voting in their state-wide their elections. Today, nearly 10 million Americans live in a jurisdiction using it!  More important, the vast majority of those who have voted using ranked choice ballots want to continue using it in the future.

The door is wide open, now we need your help to walk through it.  Polling shows RCV can win anywhere, but there is much work ahead to bring the people together to make this movement a reality in Kentucky.  With your help, we can do this!

Don’t miss our upcoming Statewide Open Call!  Mark your calendar now and join us on May 26th, at 7:30 pm EDT (6:30 pm CDT).
