Ranked Choice Voting increases voter voice and choice, and could transform our politics.

Seattle voters approved ranked choice voting in 2022 and it will be implemented in the 2027 primary. Thank you FairVote WA for leading this effort!
A group of around 70 people are gathered in a spacious room, smiling toward the camera. A banner that reads: "Ranked Choice Voting. For Seattle. Our Choices. Our Voices." is held up in the front row. City Attorney Erika Evans, Councilmember Alexis Mercedes Rinck, Mayor Wilson, FairVote Washington Execuitve Director Elise Orlick, and King County Elections Director Julie Wise smile and pose in front of various red, white, and blue Ranked Choice Voting posters.
