Use the interactive bargraph to see how instant runoff voting allows voters to participate in a runoff without having to return to the polls for each round. Instead, their votes are redistributed according to how each voter ranked their candidates on their ballots.

As you can see the elimination of vote splitting allowed us to see who commands the vote of the majority of participants. To learn more about how instant runoff voting works and its many benefits, please visit our Why IRV page.

To get this upgrade to our elections, we'll need your support. Please cast your vote for instant runoff voting by signing the petition or contacting your legislators
