even ranked choice doesn't exactly mean because you have to rank choice just means you get to fill out a lot of different preferences. but then you have to process the preferences in some way. so maybe we can just talk a little bit about one of the ways that you could process a ranked ballot. sure. and it's appropriate that we're sitting in cambridge, which has done this instant runoff, one way of tallying a ranked votes for 70 years. that's, i think, the place where this has been happening the longest. in fact cambridge does something even cooler for multi winner elections city council or school school board in cambridge there is a souped up version of instant runoff called single vote. so cambridge is often taken an example of how things could should be done. but you're right, even when you go into the booth and you're asked to rank candidate rather than just selecting the top choice to select second or third, etc., there are now various ways of those votes and they can produce different outcomes. this is a little bit disconcerting but also really cool from a mathematical point of vi

you say you have no choice, but of course you do have choices and israel is making choices.t was your choice to activate those pagers and walkie—talkies and maim and kill so many members of hezbollah, but also some innocent civilians, too. it was your choice to assassinate hassan nasrallah, and it is now your choice to make a major ground incursion into lebanon. those are choices. absolutely not, absolutely not. and let's talk about the facts. the facts are that on october 7th, we were attacked by hamas. on october 8th, nasrallah decided to attack israel without any provocation, and he explained it. he said that he wanted to show solidarity. he wanted to show sympathy with hamas, and he started to send thousands of rockets. so far, 8,000 rockets landed in israel from lebanon. so, we had no... i understand the context, but i also understand that for many months, israel simply fired rockets back at hezbollah. israel controlled the situation. what you have done in recent weeks is completely change the status quo, and it seems you're changing your strategy hour by hour. you said

to their second choice, and so on. if a candidate gets more than half the first place votes, we've got a winner. the election is over. but if no one gets a majority, which is far more likely, the candidate with the least number of votes is eliminated and their supporters second choice vote is now tallied. this process then continues until one candidate wins the majority of the vote, and because of the way that the process works, it could mean that a candidate who got the most second choice votes may ultimately win the election. we'll dig even deeper into this tonight at six. it's a process for sure. all right, ian, thanks so much. we'll see you at six. and nbc news, by the way, reminds you to get out and vote this november fifth. and for more information on how and where you can vote, just visit our website nbcbayarea.com and nbc news.com/plan your vote. i'm here now with meteorologist rob mayeda taking a look at our weather, and it is definitely cooler out there. no short sleeves this morning? no, not at all. came bac

if their first choice is eliminated, they can rank nothing. >> they can vote one.hey could rank up to ten. so it's totally up to the voters in the ranked choice system, as candidates with the least votes are eliminated in each round. >> voters who ranked those candidates first get to have their alternate choices counted until there is a winner. >> it's a majority of remaining votes for the ballots remaining in that contest. >> some candidates are joining forces to say, vote for me first. vote for another person. second, a move similar to traditional elections where candidates who do not make a second round runoff often endorse other candidates. san francisco's election website has a ranked choice voting practice tool in four languages to explain the process. one of the biggest mistakes people make is putting all of their choices in one column. >> you just make sure they're lining up their their marks on the ballot in separate columns. >> the elections office says. as a last resort, you can always ask for a new ballot. if you make a mistake or on the ballot itself.

we don't want anyone telling us what choices to make him what jobs to choose, what choices to make regarding health care decisions or anything in our lives but for some reason we see everyone so strong and bringing up charges and interrogating women and this is where we have to stop. a person has the right to make decisions for themselves. it helps increased them to be productive and we do not need to be the ones for anyone who stands in the way of taking away that autonomy. host: kathy in michigan, republican line. caller: i want to respond to the other colors question. the biden-harris did say that people do not have a choice to put the vaccines in their body that is not what i called about.

but these are tough choices, very difficult choices.es, i'm afraid, take us back to the inheritance of this government. £22 billion black hole. major challenges. whether it's in our hospitals, our schools, our police, you name it, challenges right across our public services. but what we have done as a government right from the start is make a different set of choices about what we prioritise. so in education, for example, the last government were presented with the teachers pay award. they got that report. they put it in a drawer. they walked away and they called an election. they left us that choice to make. we decided that our teachers deserved a pay award. we were able to do that. but that has meant different, difficult choices across government in order to do it. but that is the difference that you will see with a labour government, that your viewers will see how we prioritise health and education, and make sure that we do fix those foundations of our country, because for too long we've been held back. and the choice that this budge

that is a rational choice. if you have been not well served by the existing system, why would you not try something else. >> there are charter schools that have helped some kids but i find, structurally, the privatization of education which they are a part to have ha liberal undermined -- what they have been very good at is ll higher rates of expulsion, higher rates of exclusion. maybe just the other forms of choice we have in the system that have created a space where we are testing for-year-olds to see where they go to school -- i would say, using market-based conversation has been a bad idea and charter schools are part of that but the only part of it. it is a quote. do i know my password? i do. l this is from a charter school o operator that entered the charter space. they wanted to become -- if everyone else is getting this tax money, particularly, if white or brit charter operators are going to get this money, why shouldn't we take advantage of this opportunity? i asked him, this is from one of the founde

trump supports school choice, harris doesn't. >> number one we want school choice.washington think. >> while harris promises to strengthen education her party's platform is consistent with that of the teacher's union. quote we appose the use of private school vouchers, tuition tax credits, opportunity scholarships and other schemes that divert taxpayer funded resources away from public he education. >> one of the greatest expressions of love that a society can make toward its children is to invest in their education. >> polls show growing support for school choice. close to 1 million students are currently enrolled in programs nationwide with taxpayers typically covering thoofl three quarters of private tuition. >> i think it would be nice to be able to choose where to go to school somewhat. >> public school money should stay in public schools. >> that's the debate. choice supporters say public money is their money, too. that states actually spend less when students use a voucher or tax credit than if a child attended a public school; however, opponents say that isn

anymore, you know, we can discuss anything, well, the choice is everything, putin just forced us toction, we might as well not have done it, yes this choice, but this war and putin's actions. forced us, i don't know if this is the best choice for the country historically, but she doesn't do it herself, she doesn't do it herself, unfortunately, when there was an opportunity to do it herself, but when, when we tried, when another situation arose, now we were pushed, and now the member became first, and then everything else, and and unfortunately, we are trapped, but on the other hand, dialectically speaking, it was ukraine's inability to make a final choice that actually created it. in which ukraine is forced to make this choice in favor of the west, in favor of the civilized world, because if this choice had been made earlier, then maybe correct historical choice, then of course there would have been no russian-ukrainian war, the russians would have sat quietly, as they sit quietly with nato member countries, of course they would have licked kyiv, kharkiv, odesa and the dnipro and uk

school choice is being made.e school choice is saying we're sending our public dollars over into private and private schools, then how are we able to control what those public dollars are going? i have concerns with them, school choice of individuals as we were talking earlier, being able to say, well, i want to go to school at another place that creates a level of competition in school choice within the public, within the public sphere. >> ok. so we do have a difference of opinion here and you are a leading advocate of school choice, but you hear you have a difference. >> i think we do. and there are a couple things. the reason why i'm a passionate advocate for school choice is that hay being 48 49 50 is unacceptable anymore. we have to make the changes that are needed. and the reason why i'm so optimistic with respect to providing young families with the ability to make the decision to choose a school that works well for their kids is because that's going to be what is the driver to help drive quality within no

if their first choice is eliminated, they can rank nothing. >> they can vote one.could rank up to ten. >> so it's totally up to the voters in the ranked choice system, as candidates with the least votes are eliminated in each round. voters who ranked those candidates first get to have their alternate choices counted until there is a winner. >> it's a majority of remaining votes for the ballots remaining in that contest. >> some candidates are joining forces to say, vote for me first, vote for another person. second, a move similar to traditional elections where candidates who do not make a second round runoff often endorse other candidates. san francisco's election website has a ranked choice voting practice tool in four languages to explain the process. one of the biggest mistakes people make is putting all of their choices in one column. >> you just make sure they're lining up their their marks on the ballot in separate columns. >> the elections office says as a last resort, you can always ask for a new ballot. if you make a mistake or on the ballot itself. write

ten, with one being their first choice, two their second, and so on. if a candidate gets more than half the votes after the first choices are tallied, we've got a winner and the election is over. but if no one gets a majority, the candidate with the least number of votes is eliminated and their supporters second choice vote is now tallied. this process continues until one candidate wins the majority of the vote, and because of the math involved, that means a candidate who got the most second choice votes could ultimately win the election. bottom line despite any confusion, one thing is true every vote counts and every vote matters. ian cull nbc, bay area news. we've got answers to all your questions on our local races. just scan that qr code right there on your screen that will take you to our full voter guide, with important dates and key info on all of the races and props that need to be decided on next week's ballot. also tonight, both presidential candidates are making their closing arguments to voters vice president kamala harris delivering a majo

those are your three choices. and i think the two of those choices or detriment mental to the future of this country. and one choices, kamala harris. now, does that mean that she's going to win this race? i'm not sure if she still an underdog. but the fact that she's going to places in wisconsin the democrats don't often go to the fact she's standing with liz cheney, but she's also talking about making sure that black men and hispanic men are heard. i mean, this is something that we haven't seen before in this last 30 days is going to be a sprint where she's meeting voters, where they are, and where she's going after each and every voter. no matter what you look like, who you pray to or what party you've been a part of. >> mikela, have you ever seen a presidential campaign where so many of the people who once worked with a candidate have come out cabinet members distinguished generals, former chiefs of staff liz cheney, cassidy hutchinson, alyssa farah farah-griffin, sarah matthews, i mean, so many people from the

and there is also a choice of who is the best choice, whether he has the best for this country or not, he is the best choice right now for our country. i do not understand what this woman was talking about with abortion. i believe in god, with all of my heart. he has been faithful below -- to me beyond total belief. i have been in children missions for 40 or 50 years. i am a baptist minister and i love the lord. i do not appreciate a prevaricater like kamala harris. host: let's get a response. guest: i am a city boy who lived in milwaukee all of my adult life and i am born here. i do know a little bit about dairy farming and not a lot. i think it is worth trying to give an explanation to where frank began his phone conversation. first of all, wisconsin has low unemployment, so in words we do not have a surplus of unemployed people who would likely flock to dairy farms if illegal grim -- illegal immigrants were to be deported. i think the other important fact is wisconsin dairy farms used to be what we call family farms and had relatively small herds. i do not know the precise statisti

supporters say the bill is a matter of parental choice.uld open up children to diseases like measles and polio. governor justice vetoed that bill, but it's likely to come up again in the next legislative session when it does. and if your governor would you sign or veto the bill to broaden the school immunization exclusion? >> i would, i would veto the bill. the immunization program that has been in place for all of these decades has worked well within public health and within, within our communities. and once again, i think this is just overreach in a legislature that is saying that the government that governs best is the government that governs at the local level, but they're getting into everybody's business and it's none of their business. >> patrick, what would you do? >> so, one of the strongest parts of our constitution is the ability of families and citizens to freely practice the religion of their choice. i think that's essential. it's a core aspect of the first amendment. so west virginia right now is an outlier with respect to th

the choice on the 5th of november is only the choice of november is only the choice of americans to make we have the choice to do our part, to be unwavering in our support for ukraine, to invest in our common security, to invest in our shared future, and as you have done, sir, to stand by the transatlantic alliance, no matter what. mr president, when i visited you in the oval office a year ago on the 6th of october, just a few hours before hamas brought an attack on israel, we spoke about the middle east. we spoke about ukraine and russia. but at the end, i will never forget, ukraine and russia. but at the end, i will neverforget, at the end of our conversation, you went to your desk and handed me a speech of yours not on foreign policy but on the issue that you care most about and that you worry most about, about democracy. i quote, democracies do not have two die at the end of a rifle. you say in speech. democracies can die when people are silent, when they are willing to give away that which is most precious to them because they feel frustrated, tired, alienated. end of quote. your wo

the choice of the. the treatment of choice would continue to provide dimension that a woman who is pregnant must not be forced to give birth. this is slavery and human rights abuse. women, not livestock. it is inhumane and unconstitutional. there is no justification for any kind of law restricting access to abortion or contraception. every single law proposed that women's access to safe abortion must be opposed in court and at the ballot box. every single judicial decision that restricts women's access to safe contraception. must be opposed by legal challenge and or the legislature process. every single candidate for public who opposes women's access to safe abortion services must effectively opposed by a pro-choice candidate and banished from elective office. people who are against abortion should not have one, and they should leave other people alone. i don't know how far over time i am, but that's no. i don't know. i think that i i'm open to taking questions. i'm going to have time, see my keepers. w

our final question to each candidate was to ask who they will list as their second choice in ranked choice voting to help san francisco voters prepare. we invited the leading candidates for mayor to abc seven, and they sat down ■for interviews with abc seven news morning anchor reggie aqui annie gauss, the senior news editor covering business and politics forior news editor covering business and politics for the san francisco standard, and kara swisher, the author, journalist and host of the podcast on with kara swisher. and after they discussed what they heard. here's part of that conversation, as well as what the candidates had to say. and we learned the candidates on mayoral hopeful or one will not be included on his ballot. >> i think it would be disingenuous for me to sit here and say anything other than, you know, put me number one. i can make it very easy for your viewers. put daniel lurie number one. and if you like somebody else and you want you, you could see them as your mayor, then you can put them 2 or 3. but i've seen these city hall insiders and i'm not going to sit here and
