Calling FPTP "majority voting" and then saying "it doesn't lead to a candidate preferred by the majority" makes this very confusing.
The main problem with FPTP is that it's not "majority voting". Majority means majority of the electorate, and others who are not preferred by the majority of the electorate tend to win with FPTP when the vote is split.
And why not use range voting instead of this? I'm not selecting between "Great" and "Good" and such is a much better solution.
