This November, Portlanders will experience a new voting method when the city introduces ranked-choice voting (RCV) to elect its top elected officials. Although RCV is not new — 43 other American cities, two states and, three counties now use it — its unfamiliarity to local voters has raised a number of questions and concerns. Are the voters and the election system prepared for this major change? Can I trust the outcome? What has happened in other cities that have instituted RCV? What will it mean for the future direction of our city?
