AZ HB2693

Allows Arizona cities and towns to adopt ranked choice voting for municipal council elections by majority vote of the city or town council.

Requires municipalities using ranked choice voting to conduct voter education campaigns in English and other required languages, and to provide voting instructions at polling places and with early ballots.

Establishes voting procedures allowing electors to rank candidates in order of preference, with up to two write-in candidates permitted per ballot.

Specifies tabulation methods for single-winner contests (eliminating lowest vote-getter each round until one candidate remains) and multi-winner contests (using election thresholds to elect qualified candidates and redistribute surplus votes).

Requires counties to bill cities or towns for all costs related to technology changes necessary to implement ranked choice voting systems.
