Ranked choice voting---may the most moderate candidate win.

[MisterBeale]

"An election must be conducted subject to the limitations imposed by a state constitution. The procedure for conducting an election is set by a state legislature. Each constitution of a state gives the legislature power to enact laws that are necessary for the proper and peaceful conduct of an election. A state legislature has been given wide power by the constitution to enact laws or regulations regarding the time, place, and manner of conducting elections. Sometimes broad power given to a state legislature tends to infringe the federal constitutional rights of association and freedom of expression."

How is the state legislature choosing RCV not the state deciding how its conducting its elections? Under what pretense would the SCOTUS overturn that choice?

It isn't, he is wrong.
