The bill's technical provisions advance, but local authority to conduct RCV elections remains unchanged.
The bill expands authority for cities, counties, and towns to use RCV in elections for mayor, school board, and all local offices.
A full Senate vote is expected early next week ahead of the February 4 crossover deadline.
Full results will be presented at a public hearing in February as the Board considers future RCV use.
