With as many as 18 candidates in the Democratic primary for IL-09, it is clear that Illinois desperately needs ranked choice voting for its primary elections. This race could theoretically be won by a candidate with as little as 5.56% of the vote due to vote splitting. RCV would require the winning candidate to have a true majority of >50%, all while mitigating the problems of "spoilers" and "vote splitting."

Ranked choice voting would move us beyond just having two choices when we go to vote. In order to have consent of the governed, people must be able to have real choice in who their leaders are.
Real democracy requires real, meaningful, competitive choices. Go to fairvoteillinois.org/statewide… or click the link in bio to RSVP for our Statewide Meeting on Saturday, December 13 at 10AM!
