Bill > SB2162

This bill establishes ranked-choice voting for special federal elections and special elections of vacant county council seats in Hawaii. Ranked-choice voting allows voters to rank candidates in order of preference, and the candidate with the most votes in the final round of tabulation is declared the winner. The bill provides detailed procedures for how ranked-choice voting will be implemented, including provisions for handling ties and allowing for batch elimination of candidates. The bill also requires the election proclamation to explain ranked-choice voting and allows the ballot to include information necessary for its use.
