Santa Clara County, after voting to adopt ranked choice voting (RCV) in 1998, still hasn’t implemented it while other cities in California have successfully utilized it. With RCV enhancing voter choice and ensuring majority winners, advocates argue it's time for Santa Clara to act. Most California communities using RCV report satisfaction with the process and its benefits in creating more informed and civil elections. As RCV sees broader adoption across various states and cities, Santa Clara voters desire an update on their initial support from 25 years ago, eager to embrace this modern electoral method.
Ranked choice voting is on the rise in California, with communities appreciating its ability to enhance voter choice, reduce the spoiler effect, and promote civil elections.
More than 25 years after its initial approval, Santa Clara County is still waiting for ranked choice voting, while other California cities have successfully adopted it.
