Patriots in Ohio and Indiana can breathe easier tonight as both states have officially banned the election manipulation tactic known as ranked-choice voting (RCV) before it could corrupt their democratic processes.
Ohio Governor Mike DeWine signed legislation (SB 63) this week that completely prohibits elections from being conducted using ranked-choice voting or "instant runoff voting" - the confusing system that allows liberal activists to game elections by having voters rank multiple candidates instead of choosing just one.
The new Ohio law gives the secretary of state power to step in and stop any city or county that tries to implement this convoluted voting scheme. Indiana has taken similar action, joining the growing movement of states that refuse to let their elections be hijacked by this Byzantine system.
Why Democrats Love RCV (And Why Patriots Hate It)
Ranked-choice voting isn't some innocent "reform" - it's a deliberate attempt to manipulate election outcomes by making the voting process so confusing that many Americans simply give up. Under RCV, voters must rank multiple candidates in order of preference, often leading to multiple rounds of vote counting that can drag on for days or weeks.
The system allows candidates who finish second or third in the initial count to somehow "win" through mathematical gymnastics that most voters can't understand. Sound familiar? It's the same kind of election chaos we saw in 2020, just with a different name.
"Ranked-choice voting creates confusion, delays results, and undermines confidence in our electoral system," said one Ohio legislator who supported the ban. "We need elections that are simple, transparent, and trustworthy."
Alaska learned this lesson the hard way when RCV helped elect a Democrat to Congress in a traditionally red state. Now Ohio and Indiana are making sure they don't fall for the same trap.
The Tide Is Turning
These victories in Ohio and Indiana prove that Americans are waking up to the dangers of election manipulation schemes disguised as "reforms." When states start proactively banning systems designed to confuse voters and delay results, you know the message is getting through.
How many more states will it take before the RCV scam is completely rejected nationwide?
