Question 5: Ranked Choice Voting for City Officials Amendment

A "yes" vote supports amending the Honolulu City Charter to adopt ranked-choice voting to elect the mayor, city council, and prosecuting attorney.

A "no" vote opposes amending the Honolulu City Charter to adopt ranked-choice voting to elect the mayor, city council, and prosecuting attorney, thereby keeping the current system where candidates compete in up to two nonpartisan elections, where:

• a candidate wins if they receive a plurality in either the primary or general elections; or

• a candidate wins if they receive at least a simple majority (over 50%) of the vote in either the primary or general elections.
