"Both sides," is inaccurate and inappropriate here. Democrats support ranked choice voting, Republicans oppose it. That's what's needed for other parties to be viable.
Fair, but the challenge is that not enough Democrats support it. So while its inaccurate to suggest both parties are equal, its fair to suggest that its not to the benefit of either party and that motivates at least some members.
It may be accurate but it's not fair. It suggests a false equivalence.
