Waltham deserves elections where winners earn broad support, and every voter can cast their vote in line with their values without "wasting" it. This launch event is the start of a citywide effort to bring Ranked Choice Voting to Waltham. We'll cover what RCV is, why it's gaining momentum across Massachusetts, and what it will take to move a proposal forward here—then we'll organize into teams and leave with clear next steps.What to expect
