Wasn’t even close. 60/40.
Who votes against this? Really!
People who want their party to stay in power
They still could?
yeah they could but now they will.
We can’t even get illusion of choice.
with other voting systems, third parties could gain more power (as intended), which means that the current duopoly would lose power, and they don’t want that
They must also only order big macs and never change it up. It would be nice to see who people really want.
People who read the heavily biased voter’s pamphlet and didn’t use critical thinking
What does it say?
Many pages of testimonials (fearmongering) about it being a bad idea. I only skimmed it.
Well they voted so now they never will have to use it I guess.
Missouri voted to ban it 😭
you would think even If you hated Harris you would at least vote for more dinner options.
I’m revising my estimation of the electorate a lot tonight
Every time I think the rubes couldn’t possibly be stupider we have an election and I’m proved wrong
We had a referendum on ranked choice voting (referred to as AV at the time) here in the UK some years ago. The campaign against it was shocking. Well funded and extremely vocal. Bizarre lies and misinformation.
Someome really hates changing FPTP.
The status quo perhaps?
The funny thing is we just had a really unusual election where the right splintered and FPTP handed a landslide to the centre-left party.
The right is probably going to flip and campaign against FPTP soon.
Reducing extremism, reduces the impact of advertising, which means business loses influence… and the rich lose influence. So that is who hates ranked choice voting.
