I'm a pretty intelligent person. And I can understand this small article you've written about voting systems and it's still bored the ever living shit out of me. Do you honestly expect the average voter to be capable of understanding all of what you just laid down here?

Ranked choice voting has the added benefit of everybody can understand what the fuck it is. It's very simple and it's much better than first past the post. Sure it's not perfect but perfect is not going to happen not when people are so dumb that they vote against their own interests simply because a washed up TV star said things they wanted to hear.
