    Ranked-choice voting is an electoral system that allows people to vote for multiple candidates, in order of preference. Instead of just choosing who you want to win, you fill out the ballot saying who is your first choice, second choice, or third choice (or more as needed) for each position.

    The candidate with the majority (more than 50%) of first-choice votes wins outright. If no candidate gets a majority of first-choice votes, then it triggers a new counting process. The candidate who did the worst is eliminated, and that candidate’s voters’ ballots are redistributed to their second-choice pick. In other words, if you ranked a losing candidate as your first choice, and the candidate is eliminated, then your vote still counts: it just moves to your second-choice candidate. That process continues until there is a candidate who has the majority of votes.

Here's a great article on Hughes - I'd be curious if people come away after reading it more in favor or opposed to him:

      More opposed.

        Ugh. Barf. I don't live in Utah, but I'm now going to do whatever it takes to help my parents decide to vote for anyone but that guy.

        There are three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who has the same first name as a city; and never get involved with a woman with a tattoo of a dagger on her body.

          Isn't this the guy that got the state to audit the U over the cancellation of the basketball series? I would have thought this crowd would be all about this doofus.

            You never seem to be able to read the crowd very well.

              Don't tempt me to change my residence and vote for this guy.

                • Hey, many of you folks were distraught that Cox didn't go openly anti-Trump in the election. You can take heart at this new ad by Greg Hughes!

                      • I have softened on my crusade against that wanker John Huntsman. Huntsman and Cox should flip a coin and combine forces just so Greg Hughes has no chance. He is a horrible person.

                          That ad makes me want to move to Utah so I can vote against him.

                            Yup there are 3 good candidates and 1 horrendous candidate. Unfortunately the horrendous candidate has a chance because he has cornered all of the Trump/deplorable vote.

                              Hughes is an absolute scumbag. He would be terrible.
