Bringing Ranked-Choice Voting to Washington State

Politics are broken. Voters feel disempowered, communities don’t feel represented, and constructive disagreement has gone out the window. Ranked-choice voting (RCV) is a simple improvement to the way we vote. Vote for candidates in the order you prefer: 1st choice, 2nd choice, 3rd choice, and so on. If your favorite can’t win, your vote counts for your next choice.

Voters Like RCV

RCV is the fastest-growing non-partisan reform in the U.S. Voters who try RCV say it’s simple and they want to keep using it.

RCV Improves Representation

More women and people of color run and win with RCV, so governments better reflect their communities.

Empowers Voters

RCV gives you more say. Vote for who you really want, then rank your backup choices. No more voting for the lesser of two evils.
