Is ranked choice voting a good way to pick city leaders?
"It was a little difficult to understand how the ranking worked," said Minneapolis voter Luke Toft. "But I think I understood it after I spent a little time with it." He added that he prefers ranked choice voting over a primary. -
MPR News reporter Matt Sepic told ATC host Tom Crann that there hasn't been any significant disruptions or glitches at voting locations.
Sepic's survey of various polling locations found little to no wait. "At my own polling place this morning, there was no line. I found the same thing on the south and north side of Minneapolis."
Poll workers expect an uptick in voters now as people are getting off work. Cast your ballot, or be in line by 8:00p.m. tonight before polling locations close. -
