Fargo Home Rule Charter Amendment Passes

A lone measure for residents in the City of Fargo, in regards to the Fargo Home Rule Charter and an amendment, has passed.

The measure will amend the city home rule charter to allow voters to vote for as many candidates for each open seat as they want, a method called "approval voting."

The current method, called "plurality voting," allows voters to only vote for one candidate for each open seat.

Candidates with the most votes win under both methods.

The measure was passed with 63 percent of voters voting in favor of it.
