If districts could use ranked choice voting, citizens in these areas would have fulfilled their civic duty already and the winner with majority support would be known.
”Reflects the will of the majority
[RCV] simply asks voters to rank the candidates in order of preference when they go to the polls on Election Day, effectively casting their runoff vote at the same time they cast their first vote. This saves loads of money and time for taxpayers and voters, elections staff and candidates. Even more importantly, it better reflects the will of the majority.
In 2021, the Georgia Legislature acknowledged the benefits of instant runoff voting and adopted it for Georgia’s military and overseas voters.
