- Excited to see this effort to get a proposal for statewide ranked choice voting on the ballot in Michigan! Voting methods are a fascinating topic, and I like this website for experimenting with them: votevote.page (I believe the IRV option in the runoff methods box is equivalent to the proposal)
- We couldn't be more grateful and proud of every volunteer and donation making this day possible. Find signature gathering events at RankMiVote.org/Where-Do-I-Sign.

- Like most people I know who have spent too much time thinking about this stuff, I'd actually prefer approval voting to ranked choice. But we have the option right now to replace first past the post with ranked choice, and in my mind that's still a solid improvement, so I'm all for it!
- Or, put another way, if I was filling out a ranked choice ballot for voting systems, it would look like this: 1. Approval voting 2. Ranked choice voting 3 (or maybe unranked). First past the post (i.e. what we have now) So nice how ranked choice lets the perfect not be the enemy of the good!
