HF3276 would permit the use of ranked-choice voting in all local jurisdictions.
The House failed to pass HF3276 on May 19, 2024, by a vote of 66 to 62 (absolute majority needed). We have assigned pluses to the nays because all efforts to enact ranked-choice voting should be opposed. This complicated, multiple-round, and unconstitutional method weakens election integrity by allowing a candidate to potentially win without genuine support from a plurality of voters. The scheme’s ballot casting procedures cause voter disenfranchisement by undermining each citizen’s right to vote and could deny them from being able to select the one and only candidate of their choice.
