ADVISORY QUESTION ON RANKED CHOICE VOTING Shall Section 31 of the Charter of the City of Greenbelt be amended to allow for rank choice voting? With Ranked Choice Voting, voters rank candidates in order of preference. Votes are considered in voters' order of preference and are redistributed as winners are determined (based on a threshold related to the number of seats) and last place candidates are eliminated. "Do you approve of the City using Ranked Choice Voting for all City Council Member elections and amending the City Charter's forty percent (40%) threshold criteria (Sec 31)?" The results of the advisory question were: FOR the Charter Amendment 2,151 AGAINST the Charter Amendment 1,032 The advisory question was therefore declared approved.
