Wouldn’t it be great if you didn’t have to vote for the least horrible candidate? If you could vote for who you wanted without feeling like you’re throwing your vote away?

If we had ranked choice voting, we’d have better legislators in office to start with. And if they used it in the speaker votes this could be resolved already.

    The whole point of RCV is that internally it is equivalent of running multiple runoff elections, each time eliminating the lowest performer.

    Republicans right now can run as many speaker elections as they want.

    If they had a goal to conclude it then Gym Jordan would get more votes in every run.
