📰‪ @gothamist.com reports that new data from NYC’s mayoral primary shows how Ranked-Choice Voting (RCV) lets voters express their full preferences—supporting candidates they like and leaving off those they don’t.

🗳️ It’s a more complete picture of what voters want.

📰Reform news from Onondaga County, NY: A proposal would let voters decide whether to set term limits and expand legislative terms from 2 to 4 years.

🗳️ A smart combo: more time to govern and make positive change, with a 12-year cap to encourage more citizen participation.
