Providing information, research, and best practice for ranked-choice voting implementation.
About us
The Ranked Choice Voting Resource Center provides a compilation of best practices and first-hand experiences from jurisdictions that have used this method of voting. The website, www.rankedchoicevoting.org, and overall project serve as a resource for voters, election administrators, policy makers, and candidates. The initial project team brought more than 100 years of election practice together to meet this objective. Having worked together overseeing statewide, municipal, and district court instant runoff voting (IRV) elections, the project team realized limited information was available regarding the administration of and education about ranked choice voting. To address this lack of information, the project team sought to develop a content-rich site to create a single resource to share ideas, develop best practices, overcome hurdles, and deliver exceptional election administration.

Check out the report we did with FairVote!
NEW REPORT: FairVote and the Ranked Choice Voting Resource Center have compiled best practices for releasing #RankedChoiceVoting election results! Check out the full report, and a few highlights ⬇️ ➡️ Release a preliminary round-by-round tally on election night, and release updated preliminary tallies as more votes are counted. ➡️ Include ballots with write-in candidates as a single batch in the first round. ➡️ Release a “cast vote record” so that anyone can verify the result. ➡️ Utilize existing tools to visualize the results! Here’s one example for a Boulder, CO mayoral election https://lnkd.in/g9qzThAh ➡️ Finally, throughout the entire process, communicate expectations, timelines, and results with the public and the media. https://lnkd.in/grDmHC5G

"In the Gettysburg Address, Lincoln popularized the phrase, “government of the people, by the people, for the people.” As citizen-stewards of our democratic republic, we must understand that such a government is not guaranteed. Today, plurality voting, gerrymandering, and hyper-partisan politics simultaneously threaten the existence of a truly representative government. Ranked choice voting is a tested and proven method that addresses these threats. I am proud to work at RCVRC, where I can serve my country by providing resources to support RCV and help ensure that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth."- Malachi Gruenhagen https://lnkd.in/dwSEter
