“As one of the fastest-growing cities in the country, Irvine is showing how local communities can lead the way in building a stronger democracy,” said Branda Lin, Campaign Director for Voter Choice Irvine. “Ranked choice voting guarantees majority rule and gives voters a bigger voice. Success in November will prove voters across the country are ready for elections that reward accountability, common ground, and true representation.”

Voter Choice Irvine Campaign Director, Branda Lin, joined LAist 89.3’s Larry Mantle and Measure D opponent Vice Mayor James Mai to talk about bringing ranked choice voting to Irvine.

The coalition backing Measure D for ranked choice voting in Irvine spans the entire political spectrum, covers Irvine from top to bottom, and has sitting electeds from various levels of government.

This November, Irvine voters will have the opportunity to improve their local elections and strengthen representative democracy by voting YES on Measure D, a ballot measure to adopt ranked choice voting (RCV) for future mayoral and city council races.
