Letter to the Editor published in the Los Angeles Daily News, by Linda Suh

IRV - Instant runoff voting, or, as I like to call it, "immediate rescue (for) voting." L.A. currently suffers tremendously from its inefficient election method. For example, only 6 percent of registered voters voted in May.Only 6 percent!

That's like eating only a finger-width slice of grandma's delicious apple pie and throwing the rest away. All of her money she put into the pie - gone. All of her time and hard work - gone.

Instant runoff voting is a winner that saves money, eliminates tedious runoff elections, increases voter turnout and promotes positive campaigning. We can't wait for the state; we're hungry for instant runoff voting now.
