Episode Synopsis

If you’re voting in San Francisco, Oakland, Berkeley or San Leandro ... you get three votes! Kind of. Today, we explain how ranked-choice voting works, why some people like it, why some people hate it, and how politicians can win even if they come in second. June 5 is Primary Election Day.

Guest: Scott Shafer, Senior Editor for Politics and Government Desk for KQED
