OH SB395

Establishes a top-three primary election system where all candidates for congressional, state, and local offices appear on a single primary ballot regardless of party affiliation, with the top three vote-getters advancing to the general election

Implements a "consensus choice" general election system (ranked choice voting) where voters rank candidates in order of preference, with votes redistributed through elimination rounds until one candidate achieves a majority

Applies to congressional seats, state executive offices, state legislative seats, county offices, and municipal positions, fundamentally changing Ohio's current partisan primary structure

Removes party-specific primaries, allowing all registered voters to participate in selecting the top three candidates for each office on a unified ballot

Repeals multiple existing sections of Ohio election law governing partisan primaries, party affiliation requirements, and traditional plurality-winner general elections
