A group of citizens led by the Charter Committee of Cincinnati is exploring a ballot initiative to bring Ranked Choice Voting (RCV) back to Cincinnati!

RCV was used in Cincinnati between 1925 and 1957 before it was repealed because the corrupt party bosses of the time did not like that RCV improved representation for African Americans and for a greater diversity of political views. Cincinnati's Charter Committee, an independent organization founded in 1924, led the 1925 initiative to pass RCV, and is working with other good governance groups like the Murray & Agnes Seasongood Foundation and Ohio Citizen Action to restore RCV 100 years after it originally passed.

Instant Runoffs with Ranked Choice Voting simply require a majority to win, while giving all voters more choice and more voice so that you can vote for your true favorite without feeling like your vote is wasted. When you have backup choices, more parties and candidates can run because you don't have to worry about "spoilers" and you can have more confidence that your vote will actually matter. Political toxicity decreases when candidates have to focus on problem-solving and finding common ground to win a majority instead of simply attacking the "other side" as the greater evil. So you can vote your hopes, not your fears!
