How does ranked-choice voting work?

Indeed, sir. Ranked-choice voting allows voters to rank candidates in order of preference, first, second, third, and so on. If no candidate receives a majority (more than half) of the first-place votes, the candidate with the fewest votes is eliminated, and their votes are redistributed to the remaining candidates based on the voters’ next preferences. This process continues until one candidate achieves a majority, thereby winning the election, a method that ensures the victor has broad support among the electorate.
