For those wondering why they call #RankedChoiceVoting an "instant run-off" if it is going to take #Maine a full week to tell us who won...
MANY #Maine districts use paper ballots. They have to be hand transferred to the central counting center and validated & scanned before the Round 2 & Round 3 (if necessary) tabulations can be conducted. This is a safety measure to prevent manipulation of the tabulation process when using paper ballots. #uspol #uspolitics #elections

Completely ridiculous. They are cheating. Just like #FascistRepublicans they are gaming the system in their favour and right wing #msm are simply sane washing it all for them.
Crazy, undemocratic times we are living through…

The fact that Republicans think ranked choice is a threat to their power, is a really strong endorsement of #RankedchoiceVoting. Maybe the strongest one.
