Ranked choice voting (RCV) is once again in the news as the Legislature is considering a bill to establish ranked choice voting for presidential primary elections in Vermont. If passed, S.32 will have Vermont citizens use the ranked choice method of voting in the 2028 presidential primary elections.
Dr. Betty Keller, League of Women Voters, will host a free program on ranked choice voting (RCV.)
Betty will give us an update on S.32, Ranked Choice Voting in Presidential Primaries, which passed the Vermont Senate and is now in the House. Amendments in the Senate included allowing municipalities to choose RCV for some local elections as soon as 2024 Town Meeting Day and creating a summer study committee to develop policies for implementing RCV for the presidential primaries as well as assessing the possibility of starting RCV in 2026 for some statewide elections.
Betty will explain where in the process the bill is; what changes have been made; and what is expected next. Registration link at https://lwvofvt.org/events-calendar
