You asked. We listened.

Join the 9:01 Albany Democratic Club for the next installment of our Voter Education Series: Ranked-Choice Voting.

Ranked-choice voting is becoming part of the conversation about the future of Albany’s elections. Albany residents deserve clear, accessible information about what it is, how it works, and what it could mean for our city.

Come learn, ask questions, and discover how you can get involved.

Seating is limited—reserve your ticket today!

Ranked-choice voting is becoming part of the conversation about the future of Albany’s elections and Albany residents deserve clear, accessible information about what it is, how it works, and what it could mean for our city.

The 9:01 Albany Democratic Club is not sharing this op-ed as an endorsement for or against the proposal. We are sharing it because informed voters are essential to a healthy and engaged democracy. Before any change to our election system is considered, residents should have the opportunity to hear different perspectives, ask questions, and understand the potential benefits and concerns.

At 9:01, we believe deeply in voter education, voter enfranchisement, and ensuring every Albany resident has the information needed to participate fully in our democracy.

This is an important conversation and one we plan to explore more closely in an upcoming 9:01 Albany Democratic Club's Voter Education Series. Stay tuned!!

Most major cities have moved beyond closed partisan primaries. Albany should too, to promote democracy and increase turnout.

Thank you to everyone who joined us last night to celebrate Tina Sodhi's historic primary victory.

Throughout this campaign Tina's integrity, perseverance, and deep commitment to our community inspired people across Albany and the incredible turnout last night was a testament to that.

9:01 Albany Democratic Club was proud to host this celebration and honored to share this milestone with all of you. Moments like these remind us that when we come together around shared values and a clear vision for Albany's future, anything is possible.

Congratulations, Tina! Now, onward to November. 💙
