Sacramentos Election Overhaul: Ranked-Choice Voting Debate - The city is considering a shift to ranked-choice voting for mayor and city council races, following a contentious primary last year. The League of Women Voters is championing this move, which allows voters to rank their top choices. If no candidate secures a majority, the lowest vote-getter is eliminated, and their votes are redistributed based on the next preference. This system aims to ensure a true winner and boost voter power, but its also sparking concerns about potential campaign tactics. Volunteers are working to gather signatures for a ballot measure, with the potential for ranked-choice voting to start in 2028.
