Iowa SSB1128 prohibits the use of ranked choice and instant runoff voting in state elections.
Iowa SSB1128 amends state law to prohibit the use of ranked choice and instant runoff voting in all elections, including those for statewide, local government, and other offices. The bill defines "local government" as an incorporated city or town, an unincorporated city or town, a county, a school, or any other political subdivision of the state. It also specifies that a voter may not vote for more candidates than the number of persons to be elected, and if they do, their vote for that office will not count. Valid votes cast on the rest of the ballot will still be counted.
