    As a retired history and government teacher, I know how critical balanced and fair elections are to preserving our democratic institutions. During this time of hyper- partisanship and gerrymandered legislative districts, ranked choice voting offers a way to cool tempers and give voters more options in choosing their elected officials. This is something all thinking citizens should want.

    Sign to Oppose SB 63 and Protect Home Rule for Ohio Communities

    Regardless of how we feel about Ranked Choice Voting, we are opposed to SB 63 violating Local Home Rule. Ohio's charter cities have a constitutional right to decide for themselves if RCV or other election methods are more appropriate for our communities than pick-one, plurality-wins elections. Big government should not unfairly punish communities if we choose to achieve majority rule through Instant Runoffs with RCVPlease sign below to protect Ohio communities' right to Home Rule. If you'd like us to continue to update you on the bill, please do not uncheck your email below.
