Committee Chair Carole Holley said, "The testimony we receive in these briefings will inform our understanding of ranked choice voting and election administration in Alaska. It will broaden our understanding of how different populations understand and interact with our current election procedures and whether or not there are disparate impacts. We invite interested members of the public to attend and share their perspectives during the public comment session."
