SB186 prohibits the use of ranked-choice voting (RCV) in Alabama for electing or nominating candidates to any local, state, or federal office.
The Alabama State House of Representatives passed SB186 on May 2, 2024 by a vote of 74 to 28. We have assigned pluses to the ayes because ranked choice voting undermines the electorate’s ability to choose the best candidate in elections, threatens election integrity, and is designed to elect moderate-to-leftist politicians, which generally means they do not wholeheartedly adhere to the Constitution.
