Maybe; I like the idea of ranked ballots; I believe it would bring more fairness to our voters. But would like to have more information to make the right decision. |
| DiMillo, Mark |

I don't like to speculate on the future. If ranked ballots is the way of the future and Hamiltonian's embrace that system then why not. As a City Builder looking to do what is right for Hamilton, one who believes in term limits, and is not looking to become a career politician, it wouldn't affect me either way, and should be decided by the voters. |
| Green, Matthew |
Yes |
I fully support ranked balloting in future elections and will move that Council to adopt ranked ballots here in Hamilton. Further I would like to proceed with a staff study of Ward boundary reform to better provide proportional representation at council. |
| Mejia, Victor |
Maybe |
it should should be looked at but only time will tell. |
| Omazic, Drina |
Yes |
The ranked ballot for future municipal elections is an interesting plan for democratic reform. With no party affiliations at the municipal level, ranked balloting would elect the candidate with the broadest community support. Based on this, I would support ranked balloting in the next City election. |
| Simmons, Tim |
Yes |
Yes, definitely I'm in favour of anything that creates a more even "playing field" between incumbents and challengers. I think we would also get more people interested in voting. |
