* All parishes in Louisiana have RCV capable equipment for counting ballots cast during early voting and ballots cast by mail. However, all parishes also rely on non-RCV-capable legacy voting equipment to count ballots cast on Election Day. These Election Day machines will need to be replaced for Louisiana to administer ranked-choice voting elections efficiently. Because of this dichotomy between RCV capable and legacy voting equipment, we classify Louisiana as Prepping for RCV.

The Ranked Choice Voting Resource Center (RCVRC) is a non-partisan, non-profit organization with no financial interest in voting equipment manufacturers. To research these assessments, RCVRC reviews the election code and regulations, investigates results reporting practices, monitors local news stories, and researches certification documents. These analyses are available to advocates, researchers, election officials, lawmakers, and voters to contribute to discussions about ranked choice voting (RCV) and election administration.
