Bill Summary
An Act To Repeal the Ranked-choice Voting Law
AI Summary
This bill repeals Maine's ranked-choice voting law, which was enacted through a citizens' initiative in 2015. Specifically, the bill repeals the statutory provisions that established ranked-choice voting for certain state offices, including the method for tabulating ranked-choice votes. This would return the state to a traditional, non-ranked-choice voting system for those elections.
