    It doesn’t even sound like you are required to rank all the candidates, so if you want to blindly vote for one person, this doesn’t seem to stop you.

    Yeah, a good RCV system should allow apathetic voters to put an X beside their favourite candidate and call it a day, just as if it were a FPTP ballot. This is a non-issue.

      And that is indeed how the system works in Alaska. You explicitly do not have to rank everyone, and can just pick a single candidate if you want.
