Avast ye! Colorado, Idaho, Nevada, and Oregon be shunning the notion of ranked-choice voting, sendin' the treasure-laden donors to Davy Jones' locker! But lo! A glimmer of hope shines in the District, where the good folk hoisted the sails for change, lettin' the vote sail through triumphantly! Arrr!
Ahoy, me hearties! Gather 'round as I spin ye a yarn of the high seas of democracy! In the fair lands of Colorado, Idaho, Nevada, and Oregon, a band o’ well-heeled scallywags sought to shake the very foundations of how we be choosin’ our leaders with this fancy contraption called ranked-choice votin'. But lo and behold! The good folks of those lands cast aside their grand dreams, givin' a hearty 'nay' to the wealthy folk wantin’ to change the tides of elections.Ye see, these schemin’ donors thought they could whip up a storm in a teapot, but their sails went limp as the citizens rallied against their grand plans. 'Twas like tryin’ to sell scallywags a treasure map that led to nothin’ but a pile o' bones!
Yet, in the bustling District, a glimmer of hope arose like the morning sun over the horizon! A referendum sailed through with a resounding cheer from the masses, givin’ life to the ranked-choice dream. So, while the winds blew fierce against our noble cause in the West, at least one port o' call welcomed the change with open arms. Let us raise a tankard and toast to the battle of the ballots, where the pirates of democracy still fight for the treasure of choice!
