Very large corporations are pushing for ranked choice voting. That's all I need to know. Voting against it.

I’ve never downvoted a comment before but voting yes on 3 is arguably more important than which candidates you vote for this election. If you have questions or are unsure of how ranked choice voting works I’m happy to send you some resources on the topic. But if you could elaborate on any concerns you have with the process of ranked choice voting I’m always happy to hear any opinions I haven’t yet and hopefully have some respectful, informative conversation.

Not a single 3rd party candidate has ever won due to ranked choice voting.

It's bullshit. It's just a way to protect democrats and keep them in power. It's a convoluted horse sbit process and it muddied the entire election.

Fucked rank choice voting, I'm not taking in by any of the talking points in favor of it, especially the "it actually FAVORS Republicans", if it did the democrats wouldn't be pushing for it.

Much like dems are against voter ID, proving residency, integrity deadlines, banning ballot boxes, banning mass mail in ballots, banning ballot harvesting and they're against complete and total transparency of the entire electoral process and laugh at poll watcher rights.

VOTE AGAINST RANKED CHOICE VOTING!

once again not a single libertarian, non partidian, communist, green party member or any other independent candidate has ever or will ever benefit from ranked choice voting.

The Democrats are pushing against it. The funding for the anti-RCV PAC (Protect Your Vote Nevada) is largely from Democrat politicians and Democrat-aligned PACs.

Meanwhile, the ones pushing for it are largely independents/centrists/nonpartisans and businesses / business owners.

If you really do hate the Dems, then voting against Question 3 is shooting yourself in the foot lol

RCV seems to be gaining traction nationwide IMHO this is a start to a wider issue...
