CTP (S3E109) The Hidden Agenda of Ranked Choice Voting
We examine the deceptively marketed Ranked Choice Voting initiative brewing in Michigan and why it's designed to manipulate electoral outcomes rather than empower voters.
• RCV sounds reasonable in theory but implementation is deliberately misleading
• Alaska's experience shows how RCV protected establishment candidates like Lisa Murkowski
• The 100-word ballot proposal summary dedicates only 5 words to actually mentioning RCV
• Left-leaning organizations push RCV because their analysis shows it advantages their candidates
• Third-party voters on the left reliably rank mainstream Democrats as second choice, creating asymmetrical advantage
• Ballot initiatives frequently hide their true intent behind populist-sounding electoral reforms
• When in doubt about complex ballot proposals, the safest approach is usually to vote "no"
This Michigan initiative could soon spread to other states - understand how it works before it arrives in your state.

A bit lighter to go with my GONE TOO SOON piece and @ladydevil WHERE YOUR LIGHT STILL FINDS US tunes is now my DON'T WAIT (TIL IT'S TOO LATE) piece. I think I could have played with, tweaked, the musical theme to better go with the lyrics, want an "urgency" sound not sure this fully captures that or not?!?!

I keep those words like stones
they weigh my pockets down
when the house is quiet at night
don't wait til it is too late
the clock don't care who you are
it keeps on moving on
while your hand is still reaching back

we all have limited time
one breath, one chance, one name
