Ranked choice voting in Minneapolis likely to remain 3 deep
Body:
A proposal floated before the City Council to expand the number of candidates Minneapolis voters can rank is on life support.
The City Council was mulling an idea pushed by ranked choice voting advocates that would have allowed voters to rank five or six candidates instead of the three they ranked for the 2009 election. But that idea didn’t have legs on the City Council as some members questioned the ethics of how they could change election procedure just six months before all 13 Council seats are up for re-election.
