An Act relative to ranked choice voting in the town of Concord

This bill would change how town officials are elected in Concord, Massachusetts, by switching from the standard first-past-the-post system to ranked choice voting. Under this new method, voters would rank candidates in order of preference rather than selecting just one, and ballots would be counted in multiple rounds to ensure winners have broad support. The process eliminates candidates with the fewest votes in each round until a winner is determined, while also defining specific rules for multi-seat elections where multiple positions are filled at once. This change directly affects all residents of Concord who vote for town offices, except in cases where there are only one or two candidates running for a single seat.
