Join a Discussion on Ranked Choice Voting, and More!

Past event
Feb 7, 2019, 7 to 9 PM

I have seen some discussion on this forum about ranked choice voting, also known as instant runoff voting (IRV), in response to a legislative bill that Sen. Chris Pearson (P/D-Chittenden) is introducing this session. I encourage you to join our panelists in a discussion about Chris' proposal at the Ward 6 NPA meeting this Thursday, February 7, at 7:00 p.m. at the Greek Orthodox Church on South Willard Street.
You will also have the opportunity to hear the South District City Council candidates state their priorities for the city followed by a Q&A with the audience. This is a good opportunity to directly interact with these candidates before the March election.
See the agenda for Thursday's meeting below. I hope to see you there!
