[EM] More non-altruistic attacks on IRV usage.

[David L Wetzell]

Aye, and that still looks better than a two-stage with a 40% cutoff(what's
in place now) or FPTP.
If they had stuck with IRV in Burlington, the perceived flaws would have
worked themselves out.
In the US, three-way close races are not common and can be mitigated in
other ways, such as are already at work with FPTP.
