Office 365
you buy a New Windows Computer, and you usually get a 1 month of FREE Office 365 use

“Question 2” on the ballot in the November 2020 Massachusetts general election will be whether Massachusetts should adopt Ranked Choice Voting in elections beginning 2022. This would be a presentation of how RCV works when casting votes and counting votes, with discussion of whether, after all these years, it makes sense to rock the vote with a switch to RCV, or should we leave well enough alone?
