There is no vote this election that will result in a better system. I'm not even sure there's a vote that won't result in a worse one.
I was living in Germany in '88-'89 when the wall came down. You got me, I'm just out here destabilizing countries for hire. Actually I'm just an American who has lived in righty places and lefty places and it's made me a proponent of ranked choice voting. I think we get railroaded into a choice between two shit shows every year.
Quick question, which places in USA have ranked choice voting and how many of those places are 'lefty' places?
There are a few but I'd have to look it up just like you. But I have lived in Portland, San Francisco, Minneapolis, Duesseldorf, Seattle. The ranked choice opinion comes from being someone who reads a lot and is generally anti-authoritarian. The US has two authoritarian parties.
Also look up which places have banned RCV and which political party is in power there.
If you honestly believe that then you're a dumbass.
I'd argue if you don't believe it you are.
Sure bud. Both parties are trying to kill women and transgender people, right?
Trump has said he'd veto a national abortion ban. No one seems to have a great solution for trans suicide at this point.
Weird you say no vote will result in a better system, and then claim to be a proponent of ranked choice voting. Which just happens to be on the ballot for at least one state.
So which is it?
People were saying the same about Biden and look at all the stuff he did. Green energy, ira, drug price controls, chips act, etc. So yes voting Dems will give you a better system.
