Ranked choice voting levels the playing field for women, candidates of color, and people new to the political game. Candidates don't have to worry about "spoiling the election" and voters don't have to worry about "strategic voting." With RCV, everyone gets a fair chance in our elections and voters can vote their true preferences.
