HB1273 prohibits ranked-choice voting in North Dakota.

The North Dakota State Senate failed to override the Governor's veto on April 19, 2023 by a vote of 28 to 19. We have assigned pluses to the ayes because ranked-choice voting adds complexity to the election process and raises concerns about potential election manipulation. Moreover, ranked-choice voting could potentially result in voter disenfranchisement or errors that undermine the integrity of elections.
