Rank Choice Voting is being brought to Michigan by Rank MI Vote.
America is more politically divided than ever — and too many voters feel unheard. It’s time for a solution that lowers the temperature, rewards collaboration, empowers voters, and truly reflects the will of the people.
That’s what Ranked Choice Voting does, and that’s what Rank MI Vote’s Bridge the Divide community action series is all about.
Rank MI Vote is a non-partisan, volunteer-led, grassroots organization dedicated to bringing Ranked Choice Voting to Michigan via a constitutional amendment. It gives voters real choices and rewards candidates who build coalitions instead of pointing fingers, helping restore civility, fairness, and trust to our democracy.
How does Rank Choice Voting work?
Voters have the option to rank candidates in order of preference — favorite candidate #1, second-favorite #2, and so on.
If any candidate has a majority (over 50%) of first-choice votes, they win.
If no candidate reaches a majority, there is an instant run off – the candidate who received the least votes is eliminated and those votes count for their voters’ second choices.
Through instant computerized tabulation that can be verified on paper ballots, steps 2 and 3 repeat until one candidate reaches a majority.
At our meeting, you’ll:
✅ Learn about the problems with our current system and how Ranked Choice Voting fixes them
Be sure to join us at our January 13 11:30 am meeting at the Sport’s Den in Northville. Ravi Yalamanchi, of the Oakland Branch invites all to come and join the discussion. Please feel free to invite anyone else you believe would be interested in this topic.

Welcome to the AAUW Northville/Novi Branch
The Northville-Novi Branch was established in 1975 to promote equity and education for women and girls in the Northville-Novi area. The Branch supports a number of community action projects and we raise funds for local college scholarships. Most importantly, our Branch provides our members with opportunities to associate with like minded women and men through our activities and special interest groups. We join because of what AAUW stands for; we stay because of the friendships we make.
