Maine Republican Party Will Ignore Ranked Choice Voting Transfers in March 2024 Presidential Primary

Here is the story from The Bangor Daily News. Thanks to the FairVote Daily E-mail for the heads up.

The Maine GOP should consult the Virginia and Utah GOP parties, which have used RCV to their benefit, particularly in Virginia, where RCV in the 2021 Governor nomination convention gave the nomination to Glenn Youngkin, who defeated Democrat Terry McAuliffe in the November General Election.

Since then, the Republican Party of Virginia has chosen to use RCV in privately run primaries (called “firehouse primaries” in Virginia) to nominate candidates for public office.

The Utah GOP has long used RCV in internal party elections.

Ranked Choice Voting is obviously popular with the public (see this past Tuesday’s election results), and Republican Party opposition to it is one more problem with the Republican “brand” in the United States.

  2. You confused Trump with Biden again, you poor confused old man. Biden is the fascist tyrant and senile puppet of Xi. Trump is the patriot and hero who will save America.
