Dear John,
Thanks to the hundreds of you who took action so quickly on this important bill!

We wanted to let you know that the Veterans and Legal Affairs committee has scheduled the public hearing on the bill to expand Ranked Choice Voting (LD 1666) for this Thursday, April 24, at 2 PM in room 437 (that’s the fourth floor of the State House building).

I’ll be at the State House in Augusta on Thursday to testify in support. If you haven’t already, will you sign our petition now so we can show lawmakers just how many Mainers care about fair elections? [[link removed]]

Better yet, you can tell them yourself, either in person or on Zoom. Please email me at [email protected] [[email protected]] to learn more about how you can submit your own testimony on this bill.

Thank you for your support!
Nick

Dear John,

The Maine legislature will be considering a bill that would make our elections fairer, possibly as soon as next week. We need your help today to make sure it advances.
This legislation would expand Ranked Choice Voting (RCV) to gubernatorial and state legislative races. Over the past four statewide elections, RCV has given voters more meaningful choices at the ballot – that’s why a majority of Mainers support ranking candidates 1 . I’ll be testifying on behalf of MCV at the public hearing and want to show lawmakers just how many Mainers care about this issue. Will you show your support by signing our petition today?

Next year’s gubernatorial election promises to be a hotly contested affair, and that’s why it’s so important to expand RCV now. All of us – not to mention the lands, waters, and wildlife we hold dear – are at risk when anti-environment politicians can be elected despite being opposed by a majority of voters.
The more opportunity you and other Maine voters have to express preferences for candidates who will champion our climate, environment, and democracy, the better off our state will be. LD 1666 will do just that by expanding RCV to races for governor and the state legislature, just as Maine voters originally intended when they adopted RCV at the ballot in 2016.

Please consider signing this petition and tell lawmakers to expand Ranked Choice Voting!
