Thereās nothing unconstitutional about ranked choice voting.
Additionally, RCV is awesome. It actually allows for third party candidates to have a chance.
Simple scenario: letās suppose youāre a libertarian and you really like the libertarian candidate. The problem is that youāre voting in what is expected to be a very close race. You canāt stand the Democrat candidate and the Republican candidate is pretty terrible, but not as bad as the Democrat. If you vote Libertarian, you effectively just lose your vote which might give the win to the Democrat. What do you do?
RCV addresses that scenario perfectly. You put the libertarian as your first choice. You put the Republican as your second choice. If your libertarian candidate wins, awesome. If he loses, thatās ok, your vote goes to the Republican. You get the luxury of voting for your favorite candidate without running the risk of throwing your vote away.
