I think that’s a feature not a bug. It would encourage people to propose plan or candidates that are acceptable to a wider part of the electorate.
- munk-a 8y agoThe US is already feeling the pain of bloc voting though - the two party system has managed to heavily entrench itself - we need to look at voting systems that may experimentation free or cheap. I'd much rather see IRV gain traction to remove the spoiler effect and disincentivise negative campaigning.
