“It was like ‘Jeopardy,'” said Dale Ho, director of voting rights at the American Civil Liberties Union, one of the lawyers who will argue the case in the Supreme Court. “They had the answer. They needed the question.”

“Ranked-Choice Voting = Super Saturday in Alaska, Hawaii”<https://electionlawblog.org/?p=104663>
Posted on April 13, 2019 10:02 am<https://electionlawblog.org/?p=104663> by Rick Hasen<https://electionlawblog.org/?author=3>

Dave Daley and Rob Rithie oped<https://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2019/04/13/ranked-choice_voting__super_saturday_in_alaska_hawaii.html>:

Step aside, Super Tuesday — and say aloha to ranked-choice voting.

While contests in 11 states on March 3 will elect the most delegates in the 2020 presidential primaries, it’s April 4 — and the party-run primaries in Alaska and Hawaii — that might actually transform our politics. Both states plan to use ranked-choice voting to elect their delegates to the Democratic National Convention. With the vote possibly divided among more than 15 candidates, there’s real potential of a plurality nominee who doesn’t unify Democrats.
