It’s such a bizarre article. The proponents of RCV are objectively correct that RCV basically solves the problem

By recruiting a candidate who's impact is entirely neutralised by RCV, Democrats have shown how RCV is too confusing for voters, who are morons.

RCV repeal failed AGAIN in alaska

genuinely one of the reasons they are so opposed to alaska style RCV is that it makes these little ratfucking schemes less effective.
I just want to also say how fucking rich it is for Republicans to claim DECEPTION in Alaska when they create endless hoops to voting at all, and write ballot initiative language that deliberately obfuscates intent.

RCV *eliminates* the effect of (intentional or unintentional) spoiler campaigns.
It is one of the key advantages of RCV.

I don’t see how Sullivangate has any impact on RCV, if anything, RCV dilutes the spoiler effect

imo it’s theoretically possible Peltola gets to 50% without needing RCV

And beyond all belief, most of the articles didn't mention ranked-choice voting (RCV) at all and the one that explicitly talked about RCV incredibly said it made the confusion issue WORSE! (Many people don't know there is a "b" in "dumb.")
🧐 As of today - @nytimes.com “has now run more than a dozen reports on this matter in just three days.” Meanwhile the NYT “still has not told readers of a new rape allegation against Donald Trump that was made public on Monday …”

Okay, but this is also one of those situations where RCV should be really interesting.

It also wouldn't even matter thanks to Alaska adopting RCV.

coverage aside, this is factually very poor, the NO vote (saving RCV) in Alaska outruns Peltola by a few points.

I mean: it is very interesting to see the explicit insertion of NYT as a participant in a political argument about RCV like this

RCV probably survives in Alaska but it's close enough repeal may well have passed if they hadn't also included repealing dark money disclosure. Those were also bundled in the original RCV referendum in 2020, but they could have left the campaign finance bit out. Maybe cost it enough to be decisive.

This is why we need RCV in state races. And why we all wanted RCV in the first place.
