Ranked Choice Voting (RCV) Update: More candidates = more choice! We now have declared write-in candidates, and this list is public and available here. Write-in candidates have to file and be approved by the Secretary of State 60 days before the election. All Mainers will use RCV in the U.S. House race. Previously, it was not yet in effect for CD 1 because there were only two known candidates. It was already in effect for CD 2 with multiple candidates.
The names of these write-in candidates won't appear on your ballot, but if you know you want to vote for them, there'll be space where you can write the candidate's name, then rank all the candidates in the order of your preference. If you don't want to rank the candidates, you don't have to! Just fill in the bubble next to your first choice. |
