#runoffs
I have rarely felt so disconnected from the political moment as when KLB won the Primary outright, no runoff, greater than 50% of the vote. I was sorta glad the state democrats didn't have to beat each other up for several more weeks of runoffs, but who exactly is jazzed about her candidacy?

The link I gave above only had the numbers of various first round scenarios; the numbers for the two hypothetical runoffs I mentioned in my post above (in the same poll) are here.

The poll has her leading Edouard Philippe 57/43, and Jean-Luc Melenchon 69/31, in the two 'top 2' runoffs tested.

Phillippe and Melenchon are the two likeliest candidates, according to this same poll (and current conventional wisdom) to make the runoff against her.

Hello Colorado - Esp those down stream of SunCor's years of toxic spills and stink - Hell has frozen over - 🙏 Not only will States win but hope class action lawsuits will be filed for the years of subjugation to toxic runoffs from them.

Biden tells Georgia voters that $2,000 stimulus checks will never arrive if Republicans win Senate runoffs
President-elect Joe Biden said $2,000 relief checks would reach Americans quickly if the Democrats Raphael Warnock and Jon Ossoff won in Georgia.

Why are you lying to people.

We don’t need stupid lies to make our case.

Sending stimulus checks is New Deal politics called Keynesian stimulus and it’s what the ultrawealthy investors hate because it supposedly devalues their investments.

This is so deceitful.

They’re literally training their own Dem voters to reject the **idea** of the government sending out checks.

It’s transparently lying, because: www.businessinsider.com/biden-georgi...

Alaska Will Vote Again on Ranked-Choice Repeal

Alaska Will Vote Again on Ranked-Choice Repeal
Alaska voters will revisit ranked-choice voting on Nov. 3. Ballot Measure 2 would restore partisan primaries, single-choice general elections and special runoffs while changing disclosure rules.

There’s a concurrent governor’s race statewide as well as congressional/state legislative elections. I believe NE only requires a plurality, there’s no runoffs.

Im in 21st place going into the runoffs next sat. Best I’ve ever done. (It wont hold) The front suspension is still a bit off so im corner weighting the car & lord help me i used geometry in real life bc the car must be level.
Net net the floor has a 2.7 deg slope which is 4” at the rear tire…

2/3- They perversely incentivize bad-faith behavior. We regularly have the leading Dem candidate run ads in the primary to boost the leading GOPer, so that the general is a cakewalk for them (instead of having to beat dem opponent). Total opposite of ranked choice/instant runoffs.

As the nation prepares to vote in pivotal midterm runoffs, will LDS Church President Dallin Oaks return to a message he delivered six years ago, urging members and all Americans to "peacefully accept the results of elections"?

That power existed for good reason. Trump is the problem. All we have to do is get rid of the Electoral College and require runoffs until a majority is achieved. That would have eliminated Trump.

Mamdani won because NY had ranked choice runoffs, otherwise Cuomo woulda won on name recognition. Democrats pick centrists by rigging primaries without runoffs or disproportionate runoffs or NO primaries, all to assure defeat and Hitler wins. Only a structural change in the party can work.
September 24, 2026 at 9:18 AM
Without runoffs or RVC, popular vote still elects Hitler with 30% plurality as anti genocide voters can't reject the worst candidate since 7 sane candidates split majority vote to satisfy their ego. Reform takes more brains than a slogan. Americans ain't up to it being the dumbest country on earth.
September 24, 2026 at 9:13 AM
Cuomo lost and Mamdani won solely because of ranked choice voting. RCV allows voters to reject the bad candidates despite name recognition always gives them plurality if no runoffs. The Demo party needs primaries to have runoffs and RCV and let voters decide not crony buttlicking skills.
