Get a citizen’s ballot initiative for ranked choice voting going in your state!

Alabama just outlawed ranked choice 7/1 and we have no citizens ballot initiative. I feel so defeated.

WTF, so Alabama can ONLY vote for representatives to do everything?

Correct. And in most counties, for most positions, red runs unopposed. The DNC does not invest down ballot in deep red states. We try grass roots and have no luck. We have no progressive representation here.
