On Thursday April 4th from 5:30 - 7 a coalition of Democratic, Progressive, and independent lawmakers from across Vermont will be hosting a public information session on a Ranked Choice Voting proposal introduced in the Vermont Legislature.
The proposed legislation is modeled after Maine's successful 2016 law, and would adopt Ranked Choice Voting for most primary elections and for congressional races. Kyle Bailey, key organizer from the Maine effort, Vermont's Lieutenant Governor and a number of public interest groups familiar with Vermont's previous Ranked Choice Voting efforts will join sponsors of the bill from 5:30 - 7 pm in Room 10 of the Statehouse.
Brief voting demonstrations and historical presentations on the Maine and Vermont efforts will be followed by an opportunity for legislators and the public to ask question.
