How you vote in this race: ranked choice

DC uses ranked-choice voting when three or more candidates are on the ballot. You can rank up to five candidates in order of preference, including a write-in; you don't have to rank more than one. If no one has more than half of the first choices, the last-place candidate is eliminated and those ballots count for their next choice, until someone has a majority.
