Congressman Jamie Raskin (MD-08) and Congressman Don Beyer (VA-08) renewed their efforts to bring ranked choice voting to U.S. congressional elections, reintroducing their *Ranked Choice Voting Act *. Senator Peter Welch (D-VT) is introducing companion legislation in the Senate.
The legislation would require ranked choice voting (RCV) in all congressional primary and general elections starting in 2028, allowing voters to express support for multiple candidates for public office, with the candidate receiving the most votes declared the winner.
Which is a prime example of how approval is a superior voting system. It is simpler than RCV, so they can’t make dumb arguments like that to begin with.
Naw, I am okay with them not voting
That’s not the issue though, the issue is that they’ll use it as an excuse to block progress.
They block progress the same way fish swim. It’s who they are.
Absolutely they do.
However how obviously bullshit their claims are does still matter. That’s why they’re getting roasted about the people eating cats a dogs thing.
