    RCV specifically is worse than say Ranked Robin voting, STAR voting, or score voting which all would make the least liked candidate winning less likely compared to RCV or FPTP.

    Most countries stopped at RCV, but Ranked Robin or STAR would be a big upgrade.

    Fixing the voting system is just one of the key things that needs to happen though. Education desperately needs reforms. Our media desperately needs reforms such as the Fairness Doctrine coming back and being expanded to all media and social media influencers/podcasters as well.

      Ranked Robin voting?

      Never heard of it but sounds nice. We all vote for Robin Hood and then steal from the rich.

        No need to steal, they should pay out what they owe through taxes, which should be a considerably higher sum than it is currently.

        This helps explain Ranked Robin better than I could, but it’s a great starting point for electing leaders from third parties and for helping to change the media landscape for winning elections.
