Georgia has a $75 Million Runoff Election Problem. Ranked Choice Voting Would Solve It, But Instead, the Georgia Senate Just Voted to Ban RCV.

Georgia is the only state which conducts runoffs for both general AND primary elections when no candidate receives a 50% majority.  But runoff elections are time consuming, have low turnout, and cost millions of dollars to run.   Ranked choice voting - also known as “instant runoff”-- could solve it, BUT the Georgia Senate just voted to ban it.
