On June 8, the Colorado legislature passed HB 1071. It says that if a city wants to use ranked choice voting for its own city officer elections, the county elections office must handle that RCV election for the city. This will make it far easier for cities to try ranked choice voting. Thanks to Fairvote for this news.
Thus is good. I hope it become law.
Condorcet = RCV done right.
Retard Demo Rep says that on every single ranked choice topic. How about something else for once or better yet, saying nothing?
Why is condorcet rcv done right?
@Clayton…. I’ve done (minor) research into it… it’s basically a pairwise election using rcv ballots to simplify voting… It occasionally leads to a different winner that is more of a consensus candidate than the majority winner of a RCV election might be. Basically each ballot awards candidates wins by who is marked higher. The person marked first is awarded a win over the person marked second, the person marked second is awarded a win over a person marked third, etc. And since the order of people’s ballots will be different the pairwise wins will be different. Then the person who won the most pairwise votes is the winner of the election.
If I remember correctly, as best as could be concluded a study showed that if president was elected this way Johnson would have won 2016. I believe Biden still would have won 2020 (all things being the same – ie Johnson didn’t run again if he did win 2016).
Quite honestly Demo Rep has sold me on this election method for executive positions…. The only other alternative that seems fair is STAR voting.
Thanks.
THE MATH OF EACH —

MODERATES ARE SPLIT FOR 2ND CHOICE.
34 AA-MM-ZZ

WITH RCV – 32 MM LOSES,
EXTREMIST AA BEATS EXTREMIST ZZ 50-49.

MM HAS 99 VOTES OF 99 VOTES IN 1+2 PLACES [APPROVAL VOTING].
HEAD TO HEAD—-
MM BEATS AA 65-34
MM BEATS ZZ 66-33

ALSO REVERSE — ZZ HAS 50 VOTES IN LAST PLACE.

COPY AND PASTE ON WALL.
Is your caps lock key a little stuck? You can have it cleaned very cost effectively now.
I read it as requiring rhe county to handle the city election if the county’s equipment can handle it.
It appears that in Colorado that if a city is holding an election on the same day a state or county election, the city, school district, etc. can make the county conduct the election.
Terrible news.
Pairwise is a one-party voting system because only the one biggest wins without exceptions.
America is a melting pot. One-party and two-party voting systems are unacceptable.
No way there will ever be unity under one-party voting systems.
This is a disaster for everyone.
Join the new 6457-party/caucus system, the PPP Electoral College, voting going on now;
