On January 25, the Alaska initative to repeal the top-four system was launched. It needs 26,705 signatures (10% of the number of voters who cast a ballot in November 2022). The initiative would restore the ability of parties to have nominees, and end ranked choice voting.

There are also three bills in the legislature to return to the pre-2022 system, but they aren’t expected to pass. They are SB 2 by Senator Mike Shower (R-Wasilla); HB 1 by Representative George Rauscher (R-Sutton); and HB 4 by Representative Sarah Vance (R-Homer).

Arizona Representative Jennifer Pawlik (D-Chandler) has introduced HB 2153, to let independent voters choose a presidential primary ballot. Arizona already lets independents vote in non-presidential primaries, but not presidential primaries.

Two Democratic members of the Texas legislature have introduced SB 95 and HB 237, which would provide that Texas join the National Popular Vote compact for electing presidents. They are Senator Nathan Johnson of Dallas, and Representative Vikki Goodwin of Austin.
