Great happy hour last night in Oak Park! We wrote letters to our electeds in support of State Sens. Laura Murphy's, Robert Peters', and David Koehler's SB2004, the #RankedChoiceVoting "local option" bill for Illinois! Contact your Sens. at tinyurl.com/RCV4Illinois !
Did you know? Oak Park, Illinois passed an #RCV referendum w/ 79% voting yes in Nov 2024? SB2004 is needed to quickly and smoothly implement the referendum in time for Oak Park's next municipal elections!

SB2004 would allow for local municipalities in IL to adopt #RankedChoiceVoting via referendum. This would be a big step towards RCV for bigger elections. Support at TinyURL.com/RCV4Illinois or click the 🔗 in bio!

Contact your state Senator now to support critical pro-democracy innovation in Illinois with SB2004 and #RankedChoiceVoting! SB2004 is a crucial step to the progress of pro-democracy innovation with ranked choice voting!
SB2004 would explicitly allow local municipalities to implement the system and provide needed clarity for local clerks on best practices for implementation.

Great meeting about SB2004 with State Senator Laura Ellman of the 21st State Senate District (which covers much of Naperville, Lisle, Butterfield, Glen Ellyn, and Lombard)! Lots of positive energy around local RCV in our State Senate! We are working hard to add co-sponsors to SB2004 so that local IL municipalities can implement RCV referendums if they choose to do so!

We hope that Governor JB Pritzker will come out in support of #RankedChoiceVoting soon!
3 cities have passed RCV in IL, but implementation is stalled by legal uncertainty. In the meantime, State Senator Laura Murphy has introduced SB2004, legislation that would provide clarity to clerks in cities seeking to try out RCV for their local elections. Visit the link in bio to contact your state senator urging them to support SB2004 so that Illinois municipalities can implement RCV!

As RCV is beginning to see exponential success across the country, House Republicans in the US Congress have introduced the MEGA Act, which includes a provision that would ban RCV in all federal elections. This would be a huge setback for pro-democracy innovation across the US, and it would limit voter choice and power for all Americans, regardless of party affiliation.
