|
The bill excludes
the election of Governor, State Senator and State House representative from
being required to use ranked-choice voting in general and special elections,
but keeps it for United States Senator and United States Representative to
Congress. It also keeps it for for all 5 positions for primary elections.
Implementation is delayed until elections held after December 1, 2019, so no
appropriations are required in this bill. |
|
Additional cost to
the Department of Secretary of State associated with conducting a study and
reporting the results can be absorbed within existing budgeted resources. |
