If #RankedChoiceVoting is used on your ballot, rank ONLY candidates whom you support. Omit those you don't. If your top choice is eliminated, your vote transfers to support your next-in-line choice. (Here in Portland OR, city uses RCV. County starts 2026.) #politics #USpol

In #RankedChoiceVoting voters rank candidates in preference order. More info allows elections to better implement the will of the voters. RCV is on the ballot in Alaska as a question whether to keep it, as well as Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, Oregon & DC. #politics
