MODERATORS
Any time you have an election, the winning choice is always 'first past the post'. No matter how many rounds of voting you place in the way.
there are other methods, ranked choice for example
Americans will literally do anything rather than implement proportional representation.
Uh, no, that's not how this works at all.
I get your point, but what those systems do is they don't let massively unpopular candidates win by dividing the opposition and they let third parties compete without splitting the vote.
