Between her hands, she held a clipboard. On the back, it read: “Fixing politics starts with RANKED CHOICE VOTING.”
Williams was one of several canvassers at Naperville polling places last month to gather support for a local petition drive that would allow city residents to decide if they want to switch to a ranked choice voting system.
