On Sunday, May 24, the Libertarian convention held a second round of voting for vice-president. Again, no one got 50%. The results: Spike Cohen 474; John Monds 432; Ken Armstrong 96.

They are demonstrating the one-party system where all Electors get two or more multiples of votes.
Only limited voting can bring a three-party voting system but they snuffed that out with one-party male-dominated approval voting and also semi-proportional representation at California State L.P. convention.
So no one advocated for three-party voting systems since we got snuffed out.
Now we can turn our focus to after first Tuesday in November because they isn’t any use for a pure proportional representation Electoral College in 2020 of which we are aware.
Ogle, you lost. You didn’t get a single vote. Shut up and go away.
?!? How did Ken Armstrong lose 84 votes on the second round just because Kokesh was eliminated? Did he say something?
Jeff, it became clear that Armstrong did not have the support to win so many of those who had initially voted for him shifted to Monds or Cohen. That sort of dynamic is why many of us, myself included, felt that even though we were convening online we still wanted voting to take place in rounds of balloting. There were motions to use Approval Voting for both the presidential and vice-presidential nominations and both times they were defeated.
I did not like Approval Voting the times it has been used at LP Conventions.
