PROP 1: Misinformation abounds
I am compelled to address the misinformation in Ralph Ginorio’s letter to the editor of Sunday, Aug. 26 regarding Proposition One: Open Primaries and Ranked Choice voting.
Mr. Ginorio stated that with ranked choice voting “I would be compelled to indicate that the Communist would be my 4th choice.” No, that is untrue. Prop One allows ALL registered voters — Republicans, Democrats, Libertarians, Constitution Party members and unaffiliated (independents) — to choose their one favorite candidate in the primary election. Then, in the general election, voters may rank up to four of the candidates or they may choose just one. Voters have a choice. Prop 1 does not force anyone to rank a candidate that the voter doesn’t want or a candidate that the voter deems a harm to the community.
