About
Better Ballot SC is working to bring a better, more inclusive voting system to South Carolina.
We are a nonpartisan grassroots movement comprised of a diverse group of South Carolinians who are uniting under a common cause: to make elections more fair with instant runoff voting.
What is Instant Runoff Voting?
- IRV is a simple, fair, and easy way to enable more voices and provide more choices for South Carolina voters.
- IRV ensures the winning candidate has majority (More than 50%) support and that similar candidates can't split the vote or "spoil" the election.
- Instead of picking just one candidate, IRV allows you to rank any or even all the candidates on your ballot — ensuring EVERY VOTE MATTERS.
