D.C.'s first ranked-choice voting primary means election results could take days

Summary

Washington D.C. is introducing ranked-choice voting for the first time in its June 16 primary elections. Unlike typical election nights where winners are known within hours, officials warn that results could take days to finalize due to the new voting system. The D.C. Board of Elections executive director Monica Evans confirmed that winners will not be determined on election night, as the ranked-choice tabulation process requires multiple rounds of vote counting.
