There are several bills currently in the Texas Legislature to institute Ranked-Choice Voting (RCV) in certain circumstances. The executive committee of the Forward Party of Texas is considering a resolution supporting the adoption of these bills but would like to hear from you about your opinion on this issue. The bills under consideration are:
Enable military and overseas voters to use Ranked Choice Voting so their right to vote is not affected by delays in receiving ballots for runoff elections (HB 1444, Senate Bill # To Be Determined -- SB TBD)
Allow ranked choice voting as a local option for nonpartisan county, municipal, and school district elections (HB 259, SB 359)
