Questions about ranked choice voting? We've got answers.
ByRanked choice voting is new and different. Alaskans will have their first chance to do it Aug. 16, when we choose who will represent us in the U.S. House for the rest of the year.
Say you and your neighbor both choose Candidate C as your No. 1, and she finishes last. She’s eliminated. If you did not rank any other candidates, you’ve had your say and that’s as far as it went. If you really have zero opinion on candidates beyond the first one – if you have absolutely no preference – then fine. Don’t rank. But study their positions. Maybe there is a difference between them on an issue that you care about.
LR: That’s essentially the same as not ranking and just selecting a No. 1. If your favorite is eliminated, so is the rest of your ballot. There’s no point in doing that. But your ballot will be counted in the first round.
