As you may know, volunteers from Voter Choice for Massachusetts, the Ranked Choice Voting (RCV) campaign, made history last fall when they submitted 111,000 certified signatures to the Secretary of the Commonwealth — the most ever by a Massachusetts ballot initiative campaign. The League of Women Voters of Massachusetts has supported RCV since 2005, and we are proud to be part of this historic effort to give more voice to voters.

In order to earn RCV a place on the November 3, 2020 ballot, we supporters must submit a second round of 13,374 brand-new valid signatures by 17 June. The campaign kicked off the signature drive on 6 May and we need thousands of MA voters to sign the RCV petition electronically from home. (Why 13,374? Because the Massachusetts Constitution sets the requirements! Fortunately, the Supreme Judicial Court said we can sign electronically.)
We hope you will take a minute to sign the RCV petition right now by clicking here, and please share this URL with your friends and family (sign.voterchoice2020.org) on Facebook or via email. Nothing like this has ever been done before, but with your help we can make history together.
If you would like to get involved to help safely gather signatures from your friends and neighbors, the campaign has the tools and training to support you. Please sign up here, or contact Brian Bass, Organizing Director for the RCV campaign, at brian@voterchoice2020.org.
