Really Confusing... Really Costly... Really Complex Voting

Ranked Choice Voting - the claims ... the facts:

● Gives voters more choice and more power (More choices means more confusion)

● Ensures winners earn majority support (Less than 50% of all election administered under RCV have resulted in majority winners.)

● Fosters more civil, issue-oriented campaigns (This does not stop Independent Expenditures, which largely focus on divisive issues)

● Eliminates vote splitting and the spoiler problem (Unproven and is a speculation)

● Promotes more inclusive, diverse and representative elections (Diversity is not a factor in a voting system, it is determined by the candidates who run)

● Reduces polarization and breaks through gridlock (Unproven supposition)

● Is more efficient and cost effective. (Not true, Minnetonka spent over $75,000 more in the 2021 mayoral/at-large races compared to 2017. And that's on top of the staff hired to administer ranked choice voting.)

Minnetonka Charter Commission rejects ranked-choice voting method


Comments from their 7/28/20 meeting:


Concerned about ongoing costs for RCV...    


Concerned about a well-funded (outside) group advocating in favor (of RCV)...


Concerned about amending the city charter without a single public forum...


RCV is not better than the system the city already has


(RCV) will cost between $60,000 - $120,000 more...


Former Mayor, Karen Anderson, speaks out 

... Ranked-choice voting is costly, complicated, not proven to increase voter turnout and disenfranchises voters through exhausted ballots.


Respected, long-time councilmember, Dick Allendorf, speaks out 

... more additional costs to the taxpayer, from $60,000 per year to $116,000 per year. We avoid a primary with ranked-choice voting (we’ve had four primaries in the last 20 years), but the ballots have to be counted by hand, (no machine has been developed to count the ballots), which requires more staff.

Here's what our neighbors are saying!

Vote YES to REPEAL RCV Voting in Minnetonka


RCV is a Trojan Horse


Don't Buy the Ranked-Choice voting hype in Minnetonka


If the problem to be solved is expense, we should move to even year elections and eliminate separate city elections altogether.


Personally, I want to know what a candidate’s stand is on important issues and thereby vote for a candidate. I am firmly against ranked-choice voting.


There is no upside to Ranked Choice Voting


Ranked Choice Voting Drawbacks


Ranked choice is a bad CHOICE!

Ranked choice voting backed by rich, out-of-state donors


Outside money continues to sweep ranked choice voting into communities throughout the nation. Definitely not a Fair paying field!


Here's how COLLUSION can enter Minnetonka elections...


Ranked-choice voting threatens to distort election outcomes


Voting in America should be plain and simple. Ranked choice voting is neither. It is confusing and complex ... it favors elites who know how to work the new and complex system. ~Walter Mondale
