PROP 1: The real problem is ranked-choice voting

| November 1, 2024 1:00 AM

It appears that few are focusing on the fact that Proposition 1 is not solely focused on “Open Primaries”. If that was the case, I probably wouldn’t have a problem going back to the old system.

The real problem with Proposition 1 is the poison pill that is “Ranked Choice Voting”. In the few states that have adopted “Ranked Choice Voting” including our Alaska neighbors, found the system to be confusing and resulting in unintended consequences.
