Ballot Title: Establishes new voting method: voters score candidates from zero to five stars
Ballot Summary: Measure establishes new voting method in which voters score all candidates from zero (worst) to five (best) stars, instead of casting single vote for an office. Equally scores allowed; blank scores considered zero.

After finalists identified, each ballot counts as one vote for whichever finalists received more stars on that ballot. Finalist with most votes wins. In multi-seat elections, process repeats until seats filled. Includes tie-breaker provisions. Authorities Secretary of State to adopt rules.
Applies to primary and general elections for president, congress, and state offices. Applies to local government elections unless a different method applied. Primary elections for nonpartisan elections eliminated unless jurisdiction chooses otherwise. Ballots include information about process.

@MaxGhenis - created a script for scraping signature totals for easier tallying and I discovered I made a mistake in the total for this market. the current total is 25,410 rather than 27,957. The description has been corrected.
