Empower Frederick: Vote for Ranked Choice Voting!

In Frederick, Maryland, the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) are spearheading a transformative campaign to implement Ranked Choice Voting (RCV) in our local elections. This innovative voting system allows voters to rank candidates in order of preference, ensuring a more democratic and representative election process.

Why Ranked Choice Voting?

Ranked Choice Voting (RCV) offers numerous benefits that align with our core democratic values:

1. Enhanced Voter Choice: Voters can rank candidates, reducing the fear of "wasting" a vote on a less popular candidate.
2. Majority Support: Elected candidates will have broader support, as they must secure a majority to win.
3. Civility in Campaigns: RCV encourages positive campaigning, as candidates aim to be the second or third choice of their opponents' supporters.
4. Diverse Representation: RCV helps to level the playing field for minority and underrepresented candidates, fostering a more inclusive political landscape.

Campaign Goals

Our primary goal is to pass legislation that adopts Ranked Choice Voting for all local elections in Frederick. By doing so, we aim to create a fairer and more democratic electoral system that truly reflects the will of the people.
