It's anywhere between a point of pride to a plausibly deniable smirk that a plurality if not a majority of DSA are open, often card carrying, communists, often tankies. D is a diversion to them.

I defended you, Lukaszuk. It's not about using FC 'plurality' for partisan gain, but simply that you don't use that apparatus to *interfere* w/ Left claiming proportional control, representative of the true population.
During an historic antidemocracy gerrymander.
Pls show you deserved my defense.

SC-SEN: Tossup -> Tilt D
I scoured the polls and read them over multiple times. I took the crosstabs, took the EV, pored over everything. My nearest guess is an Andrews plurality. Overall, Black voters were just too undercounted and 3rd parties take R voters

This leaves my last Tossup to assign as the US Senate race in South Carolina, and I'll do it tonight.

Neither actually IS a choice in plurality voting. Your choice is to caste a vote in some way or not. Your choice is actually NOT to pick the outcome. You see the difference? They back an equivocation into the scenario.

Neither isn't an option in plurality wins, unless literally zero people vote for any other option. The chances of that are literally zero given the "team sports" voters who just want to see "their guy" win and don't care about anything else.

this is, to be clear, an indictment of plurality-wins voting. It is defective and needs to be replaced with something that allows a more honest expression of voter preferences.

Except strategic voting is not the same thing as being told to choose one of two unrelated things. It's a reaction to the perceived likely actions of other people, and I've yet to see a mathematical model in which plurality-wins voting doesn't collapse into two options when you start doing that.

The fundamental problem is that plurality electorates are won by big parties, and produce massively disproportionate results within that portion of the house (because cube rule and incumbency effects).

This is kind of how plurality felt to us before we recognized it and started communicating, with big memory gaps we have been closing.
Not saying you are plural but. It wouldn't hurt to meditate on it and maybe try calling out in your mind.

We haven't given a non-Dem a plurality of our votes in a Presidential since Debs in 1920.
We have been and will likely remain split roughly 70/30 (+/-5) for quite a while yet.

The votes are in: your favourite Canadian superhero is Deadpool. It was a close race, with a plurality of only 12 votes over Wolverine.

“They” refers to either a plurality of people, or an ambiguous person. If we’re talking directly, there is no ambiguity.
If you consider your gender ambiguous, that’s a you problem.

Interesting how a simple survey, asking whether #ForeverCanadian should morph into a civil movement, educational society, a national unity force or a political party, makes diehard partisans nervous.
Some want plurality, but only to benefit their party.

Braid: Thomas Lukaszuk might form a new Alberta party, built on Forever Canadian — Calgary Herald
If Lukaszuk does form a party, it could harvest a shocking number of votes from both the UCP and NDP, denying a majority to both

I think having watched Law & Order from 2001 to 2006 very recently makes this fresher in my mind, as I lived it during the time and the media saturation was largely pulling on a VERY real 'majority' narrative that a plurality of 'political operators' and voters were buying into.
