Tacoma News Tribune says Quit Mucking Around!

In this morning's Tacoma News Tribune, the Insight section has two op ed pieces on ranked choice voting in Pierce County.

In an editorial entitled Quit Mucking Around, the News Tribune tells the County Council to do its job and help the Auditor to do her job and implement Ranked Choice Voting in 2008. In particular, the News Tribune tells the County Council to respect the voters. Hear, hear!

In a separate op-ed article by James Walton and Kelly Haughton, the authors urge the County Council to make ranked choice voting work and implement the Auditor's plan. The charter provides the County Council with tools to effectively implement ranked choice voting. Let's use those tools. No to repeal, no to delay. Yes to implement.
