On February 17, the Virginia House passed HB 630. It lets any local jurisdiction use ranked choice voting for elections for its own officers. The vote was 62-34. No Democrats voted “no” and no Republicans voted “yes.”

Virginia has gone full communist.
Demon rats love fraud and communism, especially fraud to elect communist demon rats.
The ironic thing is that nations ruled by actual communists (China, North Korea, etc) don’t even use RCV, or have multiparty elections at all. But don’t let that get in the way of some folks’ fascist ravings.
Communists use different strategies for gaining control of countries vs ruling them once under control. What is fascist about opposing election fraud, Mr. Hellman?
Your idea of what constitutes a communist or election fraud differs from reality. Just because someone is to the left of Hitler, that doesn’t automatically make them a communist. Case in point: Australia, where RCV has been in use for decades, and that country has often been governed by some fairly conservative politicians. https://www.politicalcompass.org/aus2025
Hitler was a leftist. I’m way to the right of Hitler. Fascists are leftist, much like communists such as yourself. The “political compass” is distorted commie trash. Australia is communist and confiscates people’s guns. No thanks. Election fraud is election fraud. Joshua Hellman is the one at variance with reality here.
Communists are in fact the only ones to the left of Hitler, since Hitler was far left.
Joshua Hellman wouldn’t recognize reality if it bit his rear end.
One Nation is the only conservative party in Australia. The “political compass” is totally retarded propaganda.
Ah, the old “because they had socialist in their name, they were socialists” argument. Do you also believe North Korea (aka the “Democratic People’s Republic of Korea”) is democratic because it has democratic in their country name? Or that buffalo wings are made of buffalo meat?
Rcv = Rotten commie vomit
Authoritarianism, including the confiscation of arms, can happen under both leftist and far-right regimes that see such private ownership of weaponry as a threat to their power.
Nope, that’s not the argument. Try again.
You don’t know your left from your right, Hellman. That’s your problem, not mine.
If Hitler was a communist, explain his hostility towards trade unions, socialists, and other leftists who ended up killed or in concentration camps. In fact, some of the most ardent opponents of the Nazis in the 1920s and early 30s were the Communists.
I know my left from my right. You don’t. You would probably think Trump was far-left too if he let up from his current policies for even a moment.
He was a leftist , not a communist. It was intra-leftist violence. Communists hate and kill other communists all the time, too. See Stalin vs Trotsky, Mao vs USSR, etc.
Hellman “I know my left from my right. You don’t.”
That would only be true if you were addressing yourself from the other side of a mirror, if even then. It’s more of a funhouse mirror like your moronic “political compass.”
For a “leftist”, he sure shared many of the hallmarks of a far-right capitalist, including, again, a hatred of trade/worker unions. Ideologically, leftists support unions.

You claim there’s a lack of credibility for The Political Compass, but you refer me to a pro-border wall website and the Libertarian Party’s far-right Mises caucus? Lol. Well, I think we’re done here, otherwise this argument will go on until the heat death of the universe. Neither of us are going to budge.
The political compass is complete nonsense. I didn’t refer you to any libertarian party caucus. I referred you to facts, which are things you don’t accept or understand. You could try reading, but that might be too difficult for you.
