Wouldn’t it be great if you didn’t have to vote for the least horrible candidate? If you could vote for who you wanted without feeling like you’re throwing your vote away?
If we had ranked choice voting, we’d have better legislators in office to start with. And if they used it in the speaker votes this could be resolved already.
Ranked Choice is a specific ranked-ballot method that kinda sucks. It beats what we’re doing now - but anything would.
Also if this election worked like FPTP then the new speaker would be Hakeem Jeffries.
