Yes, and the more votes that third party gets, the less likely it is that the democrats have any power and therefore the less likely that they fulfill their mission. Which is the whole point why you need RCV in a system like the American. There is no way to move gracefully towards an improvement to the system, because your only options work counter to your goal right until the point where you have a full and sole majority in which case you didn’t change the two party problem, you just replaced one of the parties.
