The Ranked Choice Voting Implementation Clarification Temporary Amendment Act of 2025 aims to amend section 8a of the District of Columbia Election Code of 1955 to facilitate the implementation of ranked choice voting starting with the election cycle in 2027. Specifically, the bill proposes to delete the phrase "June 2026 primary election" and replace it with "first election held after January 1, 2027," thereby postponing the introduction of ranked choice voting to the specified date.

The bill includes a fiscal impact statement adopted from the Budget Director and outlines the process for its effective date, which requires approval from the Mayor, a 30-day congressional review period, and publication in the District of Columbia Register. Additionally, the act is set to expire 225 days after it takes effect, ensuring that the temporary nature of the amendment is clear.
