  1  6 RUNOFF VOTING.  The legislative council is requested
  1  7 to establish a legislative interim study committee for
  1  8 the 2001 interim on instant runoff voting, a system of

  1 13 the second choices will be tallied, and if necessary,
  1 14 the third choices tallied until one candidate receives
  1 15 a majority of the votes cast.  The committee shall
  1 16 study the feasibility of such a process being used in
  1 17 this state, what elections it should be used for,
  1 18 whether such a voting system has increased voter
  1 19 turnout in the localities where it is used, and any
  1 20 other issues related to this type of voting."
