Independent Voter News covered our presentation at the Buffalo Charter Review Commission, "Unite NY presented its proposals for ranked choice voting (RCV), open primaries, and ballot access reform before the Buffalo Charter Review Commission last week – giving the city an opportunity to lead on more choice election reform in New York.

“Buffalo voters deserve a system that rewards competition, broad participation, and enfranchises all voters,” said the organization’s executive director, Anthony Thomas.

“Ranked choice voting, open primaries, and fairer ballot access are practical, commonsense reforms. The Commission should give these proposals full, timely consideration.”

If the commission moves forward on these proposals, Buffalo could become the second city in the state to adopt RCV by voter consent. New York City approved it in November 2019 after it was put on the ballot by the NYC Charter Revision Commission."
