“This is the time to do this.” -Maplewood Township Committeeperson Dean Dafis
"This is the time to do this," said Maplewood Township Committeeperson Dean Dafis. The TC is aiming for a November 2025 local ballot referendum while putting pressure on state legislators to pass an RCV bill.
“RCV raises the bar for democracy in an elegant, intuitive fashion. Ranking candidates from best to worst is more honest — more human — than the binary choices that first-past-the-post voting has historically offered in the U.S.”

"If the ordinance passes, Jersey City residents will then have an opportunity to vote on whether RCV should be adopted for use in local elections (assuming our state legislators pass the Municipal and School Board Voting Options Act, which would empower New Jersey municipalities to adopt RCV)," the author writes.
FairVote: Ranked choice voting #rcv is clearly becoming part of the fabric of #nyc elections in just its second use. Next: #NewJersey.
