Election Notes:

Question 1: Do you want to reject the parts of a new law that would delay the use of ranked-choice voting in the election of candidates for any state or federal office until 2022, and then retain the method only if the constitution is amended by December 1, 2021, to allow ranked-choice voting for candidates in state elections?
The sum of the county results does not match the statewide totals because absentee votes (139 yes, 34 no) were tabulated at state level.
