Razor thin margin separate crowded NJ-11 candidates. Ranked-choice voting would fix that | Opinion When 11 candidates split the vote in NJ's 11th district primary, the 'winner' will represent a district where 70% of voters preferred someone else. There's a better way to run elections.

“No matter who you support in this race, we should all be able to agree on this: That’s not good enough. If 70% of your own party prefers another candidate, that’s not exactly a victory.”

If we had ranked-choice voting - the majority of NJ voters could be heard. It’s brutal that +70% of voters are going to go unheard during this primary.

Right now, no candidate in NJ-11 has more than 30% of the vote. This is a brutal amount of vote splitting that will leave +70% of primary voters unheard.

We need ranked-choice voting in NJ, ASAP.

And right now no candidate has more than 30% of the vote because of a wild amount of vote-splitting.

(Which we could fix with ranked-choice voting.)

11 Democrats vie in New Jersey’s 11th Congressional District - FairVote On Thursday, Democrats in New Jersey’s 11th Congressional District will choose their nominee to succeed former Rep. Mikie Sherrill.

Tomorrow, Dems will pick a nominee to replace Mikie Sherrill in NJ's 11th Congressional District.

With 11 candidates, one could win the primary w/ less than 10% of the vote.

Ranked choice voting would ensure the nominee has majority support, without sacrificing voter choice. #RankedChoiceVoting ⬇️

Have you ever voted for a candidate you didn't believe in simply to prevent an even worse candidate from winning? There's a better way.

With ranked choice voting, your favorite candidate gets your vote, unless they can't win. If so, your next-favorite candidate gets your vote so its never wasted. 😊

Will ranked-choice voting gain momentum in NJ? Matt Friedman's must-read briefing on the Garden State's important news of the day

In New Jersey, there are already four Democratic primaries for U.S. House seats that have five or more candidates.

That could lead to vote-splitting, spoilers, and non-majority winners.

With #RankedChoiceVoting, more choice = no problem. @vcnj.bsky.social

The 2025 elections heading for delayed runoffs - FairVote In several of this year's elections, voters will return to the polls for delayed runoffs because no candidate earned a majority of the vote.

For most of us, election season ended nearly a month ago.

But voters in Jersey City & other NJ cities are back at the polls today for runoffs.

If these cities used ranked choice voting, they could've elected majority winners without costly runoffs. #RankedChoiceVoting

Collingswood has joined 8 other towns across NJ in urging New Jersey to pass a #rankedchoicevoting resolution. This suburb in #southjersey is asking for NJ to allow #rcv because it is proven to give voters more choices and ensure the majority of voices are heard.

Exit poll: 96% of NYC voters say ranked choice voting is simple, 76% want to keep or expand it - FairVote 96% of New York City voters say their ballot was simple to complete, including at least 94% of each racial group surveyed

You can still pick just one candidate if you want. Ranked-choice voting gives you (optional) backup options.

It’s intended to help encourage more candidates to run and engage and help voters worry less about strategy.
