flag Ohio House passes bill banning ranked choice voting and threatens funding to cities using it.

flag The Ohio House has passed a bill banning ranked choice voting (RCV) statewide, threatening to cut state funding to any local government that adopts it. flag The move targets cities like Lakewood and Cleveland Heights, which were considering RCV, though no Ohio municipality currently uses it. flag Proponents cite concerns over costs, technical challenges, and vote tabulation delays, while critics call the funding threat coercive and argue RCV reduces wasted votes and encourages civil campaigns. flag The bill now returns to the Senate after an amendment requiring public access to ballot petition documents.
