Final five voting

 


Join the League of Women Voters for their last program of the year, a look at a form of instant runoff voting known as Final Five voting. The guests seem to be connected to the American Enterprise Institute. The program is on December 13 from noon to 1 at The Waterfront OR on Zoom. (Lunch reservations are closed, but you can still attend the program if you wish.)

Final five/instant runoff voting has been touted as a way to make elections less contentious and candidates nicer (so voters might choose them as their second or third choice). But what if voters don't pay attention to what candidates really represent? 

Much more needs to be understood about how this could be hacked, and especially about how campaigns use psychology to  twist, distort, lie, and manipulate.
