SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH – Salt Lake City will continue using ranked choice voting (RCV) in its municipal elections, allowing voters to rank candidates in order of preference rather than selecting just one. The City Council reaffirmed their commitment to the system, following positive feedback from the 2023 elections.
Working as promised
In 2023, 12 cities in Utah, including Salt Lake City, utilized RCV. Several reports have found that RCV is working as promised throughout the state and that voters appreciate the system.
