- jacques_chester 7y agoIt is depressing how many discussions of voting systems in the US are (a) always being theorised from first principles instead of referring to a century of experience over thousands of elections at all scales from local to national, (b) focus on one (1) mayoral election as "proof" that IRV is "worse" and (c) assume that all counting methods are equal in terms of the logistics of actually counting the ballots. As an Australian living in the USA it drives me fairly bonkers.
