Don’t disenfranchise voters More than 22,800 people in the 2nd Congressional District voted for candidates who had no chance of winning. But these voters, whatever their various motivations, had no reason to believe their votes would be thrown away. They knew that under ranked-choice voting their second choice would count. If the court finds that ranked-choice voting is invalid, the equitable solution is to have either a special runoff election with the top two, or a complete re-vote with clear information that the winner can win by simple plurality.
