[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I find it hilarious when progressives insist they can vote for whoever they want and it can't possibly be a wasted vote. No, we don't live in a magical fairy land (or a place with ranked choice voting). Of course it's a wasted vote lol. I don't love Blair either but there's a good chance he'll be better than Elrich, who is awful.[/quote] Their focus on RCV and not runoff elections gives the game away. They don’t want elections to better reflect the democratic will with a candidate having majoritarian support. Instead, they want to devise bizarrely complicated and opaque systems that will hopefully allow their preferred candidates to win by one vote in a plurality. Voting and democracy as it is practiced in most of the world is as simple and straightforward as possible. They don’t want democracy and it’s very clear. [/quote]
