Is RankedVote for Google Sheets and CSVs safe?

Low risk

RankedVote for Google Sheets and CSVs shares saved ballot spreadsheet data with its web app and localhost pages.

When an allowed external page sends a get-data message, the background script reads rv_data from Chrome local storage and returns the processed Google Sheets voting data. The production manifest allows RankedVote web pages and localhost pages to connect, and the runtime allowlist includes app.rankedvote.co, staging.rankedvote.co, http://localhost:3000, and http://localhost:5173. The returned data can include saved ranked-choice ballot or spreadsheet results from forms and CSVs.
