Learn About Ranked Choice Voting from FairVote Illinois

LWVN Ideas Forum

Join us for our monthly Ideas Forum meeting via Zoom.

This program will detail the process and benefits of ranked choice voting, current efforts in Illinois, and allow time for Q&A.

Ranked choice voting allows voters to rank candidates in order of preference. With ranked choice voting (RCV) candidates must compete to earn the second and third choice votes from their opponents’ supporters, resulting in more civil campaigns.
