[Mpls] IRV adopted in Burlington Vermont

[Jeanne Massey]

Burlington Vermont sets another example for Minneapolis, adopting IRV for
mayoral elections. 

>From http://www.fairvote.org/

"On March 1, Burlington voters gave instant runoff voting a landslide win.
Even as other high-profile ballot measures went down in defeat, 62% of
voters supported adopting instant runoff voting for mayoral elections."

Burlington follows Ferndale Michigan, which adopted IRV by ballot with 70%
approval last November.
