Kentucky is sixth state to ban ranked-choice voting (RCV), Missouri voters may decide on amendment to prohibit RCV
On April 12, Kentucky legislators overrode Gov. Andy Beshear’s (D) veto of House Bill 44 , which prohibits ranked-choice voting (RCV). The bill changes several areas of election law, mostly related to voter list maintenance. Legislators added the portion of the bill that bans RCV as a Senate amendment, prohibiting the use of RCV for local, state, and federal elected offices.
On April 15, the Missouri House of Representatives passed a legislatively referred constitutional amendment to make election and voting-related changes to the state constitution, including prohibiting RCV and noncitizen voting. If the Senate passes the resolution, it will go on the Nov. 5 ballot.
