Dear John,
We’re excited to share ourannual year-in-review report, highlighting all the
most important developments forranked choice voting(RCV) in 2024. This new
report is a one-stop shop for information on RCV elections, ballot measures,
legislation, and research.
Here are a few key takeaways:
* Newexit surveysand election results confirmed that once voters use RCV, they
understand it, like it, and want to keep it.
* Alaskaused RCV to vote for president, Congress, and state legislature. For
the second time in a row, bipartisan majority coalitions formed to lead its
legislature. Maine also gave voters more choice with RCV elections for
president and Congress.
* Portland, OR elected a historically diverse City Council in the city’s first
use of proportional RCV.
* Despite the rise of a well-organized opposition, nearly 4 million voters
across the nation voted for better elections with RCV on Election Day 2024.
* RCV won majority support in every city where it was on the ballot, most
notably with an overwhelming win in Washington, DC — 73%-27%.
* Alaska voted to continue using RCV and open primaries, though democracy
reform ballot measures struggled at the statewide level elsewhere.
* Major pieces of pro-RCV legislation, including the Fair Representation Act,
Ranked Choice Voting Act, and Voter Choice Act, were introduced or
re-introduced in Congress in 2024.
