This bill updates and makes permanent the 2020 pilot program allowing localities to use ranked choice voting (RCV) for elections for local governing bodies, also expanding eligibility to town councils. The State Board of Elections must quickly determine practicality, set rules, approve software, and publish voter education. An opt-out provision allows localities to back out if it is determined they cannot technically conduct RCV. The bill codifies best practices for RCV elections and directs the Department of Elections to develop a framework to certify any required election technology.
