Early voting in the June 17 Democratic Primary for Charlottesville City Council begins May 2, officially kicking off the city’s experiment with ranked-choice voting.
Mayor Juandiego Wade and Vice-Mayor Brian Pinkston are both seeking reelection, but face a challenge from Jen Fleisher for the two available seats. Rather than filling in two bubbles as usual, voters have the opportunity to rank all three candidates in order of preference.
More information on ranked-choice voting and the City Council primary can be found at rankedchoiceva.org.
