Implementing ranked choice voting may conflict with state constitutional requirements that limit voters to a single choice per office.

The system encourages more independent and third-party candidates to enter races by eliminating the fear of being labeled a spoiler.

RCV serves as a faster and cheaper alternative to traditional two-round runoff elections, which often suffer from significant drops in voter turnout.

The multi-round tabulation process can make it difficult for voters to understand how their vote ultimately contributed to the final result.

Voters who experience ranked choice voting consistently report higher satisfaction and a desire to continue using the system in future elections.

Traditional 'choose-one' elections provide a clear, predictable outcome that is easier for the public to trust and verify.

Candidates are incentivized to run more positive campaigns because they need to appeal to supporters of their rivals to secure second-choice rankings.

The complexity of ranking multiple candidates can confuse voters and lead to an increase in spoiled or invalid ballots.

Adopting ranked choice voting ensures that winners have majority support, preventing candidates from winning with only a small plurality of the vote.

Election procedures should be determined by local governments rather than being forced through broad, state-level mandates.
