SB2004 would allow for local municipalities in IL to adopt #RankedChoiceVoting via referendum. This would be a big step towards RCV for bigger elections. Support at TinyURL.com/RCV4Illinois or click the 🔗 in bio!

Contact your state Senator now to support critical pro-democracy innovation in Illinois with SB2004 and #RankedChoiceVoting! SB2004 is a crucial step to the progress of pro-democracy innovation with ranked choice voting!

SB2004 would explicitly allow local municipalities to implement the system and provide needed clarity for local clerks on best practices for implementation.

#RankedChoiceVoting #Illinois #IllinoisPolitics #Politics

Great meeting about SB2004 with State Senator Laura Ellman of the 21st State Senate District (which covers much of Naperville, Lisle, Butterfield, Glen Ellyn, and Lombard)! Lots of positive energy around local RCV in our State Senate! We are working hard to add co-sponsors to SB2004 so that local IL municipalities can implement RCV referendums if they choose to do so!

#RankedChoiceVoting #RCV #Democracy #Illinois #IllinoisPolitics

3 cities have passed RCV in IL, but implementation is stalled by legal uncertainty. In the meantime, State Senator Laura Murphy has introduced SB2004, legislation that would provide clarity to clerks in cities seeking to try out RCV for their local elections. Visit the link in bio to contact your state senator urging them to support SB2004 so that Illinois municipalities can implement RCV!

Happy RCV Day (1/23)!

Ranked choice voting is a simple upgrade to the way we vote that gives voters more choices and more power at the ballot box. By allowing voters to rank their candidates in order of preference, RCV mitigates the so-called "spoiler effect" and allows voters to vote for their true preferences without fear of "wasting" their vote.

Thank you to everyone who showed up for our Statewide Meeting this past weekend! FairVote Illinois has big plans for 2026 and '27. Stay tuned, and tell your friends about #RankedChoiceVoting!

#RCV #Democracy #Politics #IllinoisPolitics

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!

#RankedChoiceVoting would save Chicago millions of 💸 by eliminating the need for runoff elections. The 2023 Mayoral runoff cost ~$20M, and $10s of Ms more in campaign costs. Comment below: What would be a better use of that $$$? 🤔
