1 ELECTIONS

2 1. RANKED CHOICE VOTING (RCV) If yu ve vted in an electin in NYC, yu knw the drill: Usually the candidate with the mst vtes wins In Mayral, Public Advcate, and Cmptrller primary electins, if n candidate earns mre than 40% f the vte, a runff electin is held between the tp tw vte-getters t determine the winner When there are multiple candidates in the mix, the candidate wh wins isn t necessarily the tp chice f the majrity f vters. Fr example, if there are six candidates running fr ne City Cuncil seat, the tp vtegetter might nly win with 20% f the vte. Runff electins are expensive! When a separate runff electin is held, it means mre taxpayer mney is spent n an electin that will likely have lw vter turnut Ranked Chice Vting (RCV), a system where instead f chsing ne candidate, vters rank candidates. Here s hw ne versin f hw it wrks: RCV saves taxpayer mney and makes electins mre fair because: It gets rid f the need fr a separate runff electin the mst-agreed upn candidate wins

3 2. REDISTRICTING Making sure district lines are drawn fairly is n jke. As the Brennan Center put it, redistricting can influence wh wins electins, hw plitical pwer is distributed, which cmmunities are represented, and what laws are passed. Specifically, when it cmes t New Yrk s current system: Sme see a cnflict f interest fr the mayr and cuncil members t appint Cmmissin members The timeline isn t efficient. Districting Cmmissins are established tw years after the federal census, but City Cuncil candidates ften begin their campaigns sner

4 Adjust the way Cmmissin members are appinted, including: The Cmptrller, Public Advcate, and/r Brugh Presidents appint members A third party like the (Campaign Finance Bard) chse members Create a public applicatin system and selecting members by lttery Change the timeline s that districts are drawn befre mst candidates begin campaigning

5 3. CAMPAIGN FINANCE NYC has a public matching funds prgram in place that wrks t limit the influence f private mney in plitics. With NYC's existing public matching funds prgram, participating candidates can be matched up t the 1st $250 (fr citywide races) r $175 (fr brugh presidents/city cuncil races) raised frm each dnr. In return, candidates abide by a spending limit and receive a pst-electin audit. Ideally, this encurages small-dllar dnatins and limits the influence f private mney in lcal plitics. This prgram is verseen by the 5-member Campaign Finance Bard (CFB), made up f: 2 members appinted by the Mayr, 2 members appinted by the City Cuncil Speaker, and a Chair appinted by the Mayr in cnsultatin with the Speaker The Mayr and Cuncil Speaker appinting bard members can pse a ptential cnflict f interest Sme say there s still mre that can be dne t reduce the rle f special interests and PACs, encurage small dllar cntributins, and make the system mre fair fr first-time candidates Change the way members are appinted t the Campaign Finance Bard, including: Mdifying wh appints the chair and/r requiring advice and cnsent frm the Cuncil fr the tw Mayral selectins Granting ther elected fficials appintment, advice and cnsent, r cnsultatin regarding appintments Explre alternative public financing prgrams, such as the Demcracy Vucher prgram in Seattle, which give vters publicly funded vuchers they can dnate t lcal candidates
