Are you for or against ranked choice voting? Why?

I am for it. It ultimately presents the least objectionable candidate. I think it would really temper the extremes and possibly even break down limited party systems to free up more electoral choices.

Against.

It's just a ploy to get weak candidates elected.

@HoraceGreenley and you don't think our current system does that?

HoraceGreenley · 56-60, M

@ViciDraco It does, but at least they just got a lot of votes straight up. People voted for them and they won. No one won by getting someone elses's votes.

@HoraceGreenley perhaps, but I didn't really vote FOR Biden. I voted against Trump. I didn't really have anyone I wanted to vote for so I went with what I believed was least bad. We might disagree on what is least bad, but we can probably agree that Biden makes for a weak candidate.

@ViciDraco Biden is terrible. You chose wrong.

@HoraceGreenley again, we're going to disagree about who is worse. But the point was I had no strong candidate to vote for.

@ViciDraco I disagree. Trump was a great candidate. Booming economy, low inflation, low crime, border control...what's not to like?
