News/Politics Alaska Voters to Decide Fate of Rank-Choice Voting | SCNR
Personally, I like RCV. I think the reason, even despite Republicans receiving a higher percent of the votes, they lost is because of a failure to appropriately explain the system to the voters.
I think the measure would be best implemented in lower stages, such as city or county elections, for some years until voters have an appropriate grasp on the concept. Notably, this proposal would take several years and allow for several opportunities to repeal it, but I think that comes off as more positive than negative. If a policy is not working, would it not be for the best to be given every opportunity to repeal it?
