I like the idea because it doesn’t force me to vote for the lesser of evils. I could use my primary vote for the person who aligns with my principles the best and use my second place vote for the lesser of evils.
With ranked choice, would Bush #1 have won the 1992 election over Clinton instead of Ross Perot splitting the Republic ticket? Would Gore have won in 2000 if Ralph Nader had been eliminated by ranked choice. Ranked choice is not a partisan issue. |

I don’t understand how winning the majority of the vote can be considered, “mob rule.”

"And you have a member of antifa on the far left, hated by more mainstream Dems but adored by 15% of the electorate." That to me seems a pretty balanced statement overall, unless of course the part you left out in your response did not fit your agenda? |

In this year's Presidential election in the swing states that remain close, rank choice voting possibly makes Trump the winner
In Georgia Trump has 49.2 % and the Libertarian has 1.2 % In Arizona Trump has 49.1% and the Libertarian has 1.5% Wisconsin also would be in play with ranked choice. That's 37 electoral votes.[/QUOTE] You had me until your equations "makes Trump the winner" |

Great idea!
Makes great sense to me! That would exclude all the high-income people who are currently finding ways to pay "zero" income tax.

So, if so, one could simply not vote for an alternative candidate, if the alternative was not acceptable to the voter. |

this is why Florida primaries are so screwy .. If your a dem, you can vote in the republican primaries and vote in the least favorite candidate and vice a versa...
This is bad enough, with a rank system .. I much prefer a runoff election. |

Interesting concept, but I don’t think it would work in the US, it seems we are unable to tally up even single votes!
