  1. I certainly hope that’s not the same IRV being advocated ny Fairvote.org for the past 20 years which cements the two-party phenomena by electing only names which garner 50% plus one vote.

  2. IRV will only elect more extremists who will claim some sort of mandate from Hell — since the Moderate Middle is muddled most of the time.

    34 L–M–R
    33 R–M–L
    16 M–L–R
    16 M–R–L
    99

    M loses, L beats R by a mighty 50-49

    Head to Head
    65 M beats 34 L
    66 M beats 33 R

    Means ZERO to the IRV FANATICS.

    M has 99 first/second votes.

    P.R. legislative bodies
    Approval Voting for single offices
    — pending Condorcet head to head math.
