The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 1111, seeks to amend title 9 of the general statutes to implement the recommendations of the Governor's Working Group on Ranked-Choice Voting. The bill allows municipalities to adopt ranked-choice voting for certain municipal elections and permits political parties to utilize ranked-choice voting in their conventions, primaries, and presidential preference primaries. Additionally, it authorizes the Secretary of the State to defer the implementation of ranked-choice voting procedures if there are concerns regarding ballot design, tabulation technology, or insufficient resources.

This legislation aims to enhance the electoral process by providing more options for voters and ensuring that the voting system is efficient and effective. The bill does not include any deletions from current law but introduces several key provisions to facilitate the adoption of ranked-choice voting in various electoral contexts.
