Learn about Ranked Choice Voting – a 2026 ballot initiative that, if passed, could change the way we vote in Michigan — in a one-hour, in-person educational program sponsored by The League of Women Voters of Livingston County.

The program — which is free and open to the public — is set for 6:30 p.m. Wednesday, April 2, in the Meabon Room of the Howell Carnegie District Library, 314 W Grand River Ave., in downtown Howell. For the program, you will enter through the library’s lower-level back entrance on Clinton Street.

Registration is required and is now open online here.

Seating begins at 5:45 p.m. The program will also be live-streamed on the library’s YouTube channel.

A representative from the nonpartisan voting access group Rank MI Vote will present the basics of the proposed 2026 amendment to the Michigan Constitution to require RCV for all federal and state offices and to allow individual communities to use RCV if they choose to do so. She will also let interested people know what they can do to help this effort.

Here is a video from FairVote:

To illustrate how RCV works, participants will participate in a mock Ranked Choice Voting election for the Mayor of Candy Town.
