When New Jersey Democrats go to vote today, they will have to choose one candidate from a field of six. Republicans will choose their favorite among five candidates. This race is a prime example of how RCV could be used to ensure election winners truly represent a majority of voters.
N.J.'s crowded primary field signals the need for ranked choice voting | Opinion
With five Republican candidates and six Democrats, a relatively small number of voters can determine the nominees from each party. But what if voters could rank the field in order?

One of the amazing things about RCV is that it allows candidates to mutually campaign! And it's important when facing such a toxic enemy as Andrew Cuomo.
Possibly the first joint instagram post of two mayoral candidates this cycle - a new frontier enabled by RCV for @bradlander.bsky.social and @zellnor.bsky.social and one that happens to come after POLITICO’s report of Myrie declining an alliance with Andrew Cuomo.

I'd like to point out that if NYC didn't have ranked-choice right now, the mayor's race would be far more irritating. The amount of knife-fighting we've avoided is incalculable, and makes me think well of RCV.

#KantGate: I’m inclined to think BBC considered various options/proposals (like displaying “Kant” on screen whenever word is sung, or very clear explanations in commentary) and they’ve consulted with Ofcom to see what might be permitted, only to be told no by the regulator (at a stupidly late stage)
