Montana: Pass Final Four Voting, Defeat RCV Ban

MontanaPass Final Four Voting, Defeat RCV Ban

Campaign Status: Active

The Policy

Pass Final Four Voting

Background

Montana’s partisan primary system has contributed to increasing polarization in the state, as candidates have to appeal to the more extreme to win in low-turnout partisan primaries. This initiative would fix that by creating a unified open primary where all candidates run together and campaign for the support of all voters, instead of just those who participate in low-turnout party primaries.

Who’s Involved?

Montanans for Election Reform is leading the effort on the ground to pass Measure 126
