Hi,
The current issue of the Pasadena Weekly, also available at
www.pasadenaweekly.com, includes an article I wrote. It shows how
spoiling can occur given Instant Runoff (IRV), contrary to the beliefs
of most IRV proponents. It proposes several better methods, including a
simple but probably very effective patch for IRV: letting candidates
withdraw after the votes are cast.
I had nothing to do with the title & subtitle given the article by the
Pasadena Weekly:
Robert's Rules for voting
Or Would VPR - not - IRV - elections be a better fit for Americans?
Regards,
Steve
