The 2020 Democratic primary in New Hampshire is shaping up to be among the most wide open primaries in modern history. No doubt many voters will find things to like or dislike about many of the candidates. So why should voters be limited to just one choice on primary day?

The short answer is they shouldn’t—and they don’t have to, because ranked-choice voting provides a better way to vote. Ranked choice voting lets primary voters rank their favorite candidates in order of preference, just like we do everyday when we rank our favorite movies, tv shows, and ice cream flavors. This simple change can provide big benefits, because it will encourage positive campaigning, decrease vote splitting, and provide more information about voter preferences at the critical early stage in the campaign.
