Ranked-choice voting allows people to rank the candidates, with “one” being their favorite. The votes are tallied in rounds. After the first round, the candidate with the lowest votes is eliminated. The voter’s second preference is then added to the tally. The process continues until a winner is determined.

Best system ever, comrades!
ReplyDeleteSounds like great potential for more election fraud to me.
ReplyDeleteJust another scheme to give leftists an opportunity to manipulate vote results.
ReplyDeleteWord. That is what the useful idiots of the Marxist-Infanticide Party are trying to do here in the Gem State. And they have the full treasonous collusion of the MSM and RINOs. Sad that.
DeleteRanked choice sounds as though it would do well in Stalin's Russia or Ceaușescu's Romania
ReplyDeleteI do not understand how your voting system works
ReplyDeleteIt doesn't.

Jo-Anne - we don’t have “a” voting system. We have 50 voting systems. Each individual state enacts and manages their own election (and other) laws. The federal government finds this really offensive as they would like to manage the election fraud at a national level instead of allowing individual states to engage in whatever level of election fraud they feel is appropriate.
DeleteCan we add another option? Let's add an option to see if the incumbent should be executed after leaving office. Get more that 50% of the "Nuke 'em" vote and you're executed the day after your opponent is sworn in. After all, if you can piss off over 50% of the voters, you've really screwed things up.
ReplyDelete"The process continues until a winner is determined."
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty sure that's how the current system works. The votes are counted and recounted until the Democrat wins.
@Country Boy, how about an option to have the guy executed right after being sworn in? You vote for whichever head you want to see on the fence around the White House.
All of them
DeleteIt's popular in some E,U. socialist countries. The peasants think it's great. The ones collecting social welfre.
ReplyDeleteBruce Poliquin, the two-term Republican incumbent from Maine won the 20118 election with 46.3 percent of votes compared to the Democrat's 45.6. But with ranked choice votes, he lost. It's just a BS way to get rid of conservatives.
ReplyDeleteAnd we're stuck with Jared Golden who claims to be a blue dog democrat but just put forth a bill that would require gun owners to get a tax stamp ( like suppressors need ) for rifles. And create a gun registry for said rifles.
DeleteWhat about adding a slot for "None of the Above"? If "None of the Above" wins, then they have to start over with a whole new bunch of A$$holes. And I think it should be on all ballots at whatever level including the local HOA.
ReplyDeleteNevada has this, but the office goes unfilled until the next election cycle.
DeleteWorst system ever.
ReplyDeleteWill we be allowed to shuffle in "None of the above"? And see what bubbles to the the top?
ReplyDeleteSorry, @Judy February 28, 2024 at 7:49 PM. I'll try typing faster, next time.
ReplyDeleteRank voting is why Palen lost her race in 2022
ReplyDeleteAlmost got that system where I live. Still surprised that it got defeated, as I'm stuck in a deep, deep blue state. Read the fine print on the bill. It gave the Secretary of State the authority to adjust the rules as he sees fit, when he sees fit. Basically make it up as he goes along to guarantee the outcome he chooses. It was a convoluted way of making sure nobody's vote means shit anymore.
ReplyDeleteDon't do it. Wehave this dumb system here in Aus. where you can have a party end up in power with a minority of first preference votes. They get in with the help of other minorities to end up with the ability to form Govt. If you can call it that! Every little egomaniac wants their own way,because THEY are always right!
ReplyDeleteMy husband calls it ranked cheat voting. Appropriate.
