PROVIDENCE — Tuesday’s primary elections are sparking renewed interest in bringing ranked-choice voting to Rhode Island.

In a first for the city, Corvallis voters will use ranked choice to pick the next mayor.

The U.S. desperately needs to revamp the way we choose our politicians and ranked choice voting would be a massive step forward.

For a while, there was hope Virginia’s capital city would be the first to show other local governments it’s safe to adopt ranked-choice voting.

While a majority of the County Board seem to like the concept, board members have dragged their feet on implementation, citing logistical intricacies and cost concerns.
