This article discusses voting methods in the United States. The article notes that only 15.4% of U.S. voters voted in the 2006 midterm primary elections, a record low. To that effect, jurisdictions in Minnesota, California and Washington will vote in November 2006 on Instant Runoff Voting, where voters rank candidates on preference, rather than voting for one single candidate.
