 voters.  What every San Francisco voter needs to know        when voting on 
 Tuesday, November 2.     2. Release of RCV data on election night and 
 subsequent days. It will be        explained how the RCV data with voters' 
 rankings will be processed        and election results determined.

  3. “What will a good ranked choice voting election look like?”  What   
      benchmarks and standards will be used to understand what constitutes   
      a successful election?  A series of benchmarks and standards will be   
      presented.     4. Transparency and security issues.  The Department of 
 Elections will        be releasing the data set with anonymous records of
