(339 posts)Ranked choice allows third party voting with less disastrous outcomes. It might be good for primaries first where there are many choices. In some states it would help eliminate run-off elections which are costly.

(3,611 posts)Approval voting wher you check all you approve of sounds better to me for primaries. Winner is who gets the most votes. My concern with ranked choice is it gave us a formal GOP Cop as our mayor in NYC.
