Nevada Voters Wisely Reject “Ranked-Choice”

Nevada voters have wisely rejected Question 3, a “ranked choice” voting system.

If it had passed it would have imposed top-five, “jungle” primaries and imposed “ranked-choice” voting for general elections. This measure would have crippled a state party’s ability to elect their own candidate to advance to the general election.

Ranked-choice voting is an opaque system, riddled with problems, that fails to accomplish what a more straightforward run-off system can.
