Minnetonka residents will use ranked choice voting for the first time in the Fall 2021 election for mayor and two at-large city council seats.

Ranked-choice voting (RCV) is a method of voting that allows voters to rank multiple candidates for the same office in order of preference. RCV can only be used to elect the offices of mayor and councilmember. It is not used in elections for the school board, county, state or federal offices. RCV combines the primary and general election into one event in November.

In 2021, voters in Minnetonka will be able to rank up to three choices for each municipal office on the ballot.
