Happy Ranked Choice Voting (RCV) Day! In fact, January is Ranked Choice Voting month. RCV is a voting system that’s long been championed by the Green Party, and it has been catching on with more voters than ever.

RCV is one part of a package of real electoral reforms advocated for by the Green Party to democratize elections. Voters want more choice and the opportunity to vote their values. RCV means we can all rank the candidates we support, instead of voting the lesser of two evils. There are quite a few benefits for ranked choice voting, especially for Greens.

RCV has seen 2023 victories in cities around Michigan, Massachusetts, Minesota, California, and Vermont. Possible ballot measures in 2024 include cities in Nevada, Oregon, and Washington, DC.

Ranked choice voting (RCV), puts to rest the duopoly's favorite attacks to use against the Green Party. With ranked choice voting there is no "spoiler effect" or "wasted vote" argument they can wield against us. Under RCV, everyone can vote their values. We've seen in races like Lisa Savage's 2020 Senate run in Maine and Cameron Gordon's several City Council elections in Minneapolis how this voting system can reduce negative campaigning, increase turnout, and help Green Party candidates win.

RCV has been proven to work in cities and states across the country, and it's time for the rest of the United States to catch up. By supporting the Green Party, you're helping support our platform and values. With your support we can help end the stigma of voting your values and bring new voters into the ballot box.

Together we can show the parties of War and Wallstreet that they can't "steal" a vote that was never theirs to begin with.  Please consider making a donation today to help us advocate, agitate, and educate until we can give every voter a voice. 

Thank you for your support,

The Green Party of the United States
