Bloomington voters begin using Ranked Choice Voting in 2021!
By voting in favor of ballot question 3 in 2020, a majority of Bloomington residents said they support using Ranked Choice Voting (RCV) to elect the mayor and council members, beginning in November 2021.
This means there will no longer be costly summer primary elections for mayor and city council, which historically had turnout of only 5-10%. Instead, all candidates will run in November, when voter turnout is higher and more representative of our diverse community. And, with RCV, voters can rank the candidates in their order of preference.
