On the afternoon of June 19, the Maine House passed LD 1083, which had been passed by the Senate earlier in the day. It provides for ranked choice voting for president, in primaries and also in the general election. But, the Senate then failed to pass the bill again, so it died. The legislature then adjourned. This revises the post made yesterday.

Ranked choice voting (RCV) in single-winner districts like in SF brings a one-party system.
Finally, a swing state figured out that ranked choice voting is the best option for President.
Unfortunately, the bill didn’t make it. I revised the post. For some reason it had to pass the State Senate again, and it didn’t, and now the legislature has adjourned.
