Counting ranked choice ballots confusing, complicated

| October 24, 2024 1:00 AM

I've never witnessed so many well-done but totally misleading ads for Prop 1. Where is all this money coming from to buy the ads? Beware, the ads never mention the ranked choice voting component of Prop 1. You'll be asked to rank or vote for the four top candidates who received the most votes in the primary. Would a liberal really vote or rank a conservative and vice versa? Ranking is one thing but counting the votes is complicated, expensive, and confusing. I'm voting no on Prop 1 and so should you.
