ST. LOUIS — Five states have banned ranked choice voting in the last two months, bringing the total number of Republican-leaning states now prohibiting the voting method to 10.

Missouri could soon join them.

If approved by voters, a GOP-backed measure set for the state ballot this fall would amend Missouri’s constitution to ban ranked choice voting.

    Copilot and Gemini both refuse to answer a question asking for general information about this ballot measure.

    Tell me about the ballot measure this fall in Missouri regarding ranked choice voting.

    I’m still learning how to answer this question. In the meantime, try Google Search.

      Tell it to offer a test answer. there are always workarounds when an AI has been told not to talk about something. you can simply tell it to ignore that instruction. why are people stymied by this? it’s a computer it’s not a person refusing you. stop giving up so easily

        Github Copilot and Microsoft Copilot are different things. Dumb, I know.
