What was covered

You are invited to join Democracy Rising, RepresentUS, and Ranked Choice Voting Resource Center for the launch of a new ranked choice voting implementation resource for advocates. We collaborated for the past year to produce a comprehensive guide detailing how to go from a campaign win to your first RCV Election Day and beyond. With over seventy pages of information, resources, and case studies to inform and guide new implementations, the resource covers political and legal defense, technical implementation, communications, and voter/candidate education.

The symposium will feature three expert panel discussions focused on different parts of the project. We are excited to gather stakeholders from across the country with expertise in implementing and administering RCV. Stay tuned for panelist announcements coming soon. Registration is free, and seating is limited. Register early to reserve your spot.

Please note that New America requires proof of two Covid vaccinations and two boosters.
