"With ranked choice, Walker might have won. Libertarians would have been more likely to have Walker than Warnock as second choice, so on second count Walker might have squaked over 50% with the Libertarian votes reassigned.

There is no reason to think ranked choice hurt Republicans in general. Alaska is an anomaly."

Totally false.

Liberals adore Rigged Choice Voting and will try to implement it especially in (but not limited to) as many supposedly Republican-leaning states as possible. If implemented, it will seal the deal for the loony left in Georgia and Nevada and will give Democrats their only possible chance of success in Utah (like it did in Alaska).

Read this, posted many months ago even BEFORE Alaska's so-called anomaly came true as the author of the article predicted:

Rigged Choice Voting in Alaska

It's no "anomaly", it's exactly what liberal of BOTH parties want to see -- conservative candidates completely marginalized in nearly all states and districts.

Great article, thanks for posting. And I’ll take a stab in saying that few will read it.

But, for those on here that are from Georgia, you should.

From the article...

If you’re still undecided as to whether Rigged Choice Voting is less than desirable, consider that liberals everywhere cheered the successful result of the RCV propaganda campaign in Alaska, as the following puff pieces illustrate:

Washington Post: “[Alaska’s] new ranked-choice voting system gives Republican moderates a fighting chance against Trump and his allies.”

The L.A. Times blandly (not to mention falsely) asserts that “RCV marginalizes ‘hard liners’ from BOTH sides of the spectrum”.

This is an obvious lie, because the media’s political spectrum runs only from “moderate” (leftist moonbat) through “right-wing” (like Mitt Romney) and “FAR right” (anyone the media really hates). There is no such thing as “liberal”, and certainly not any “hard-liners” on the left. Other liberal outlets joyously proclaimed that RCV could lead to the election of fewer white males, facilitating instead the victories of “coalition-builders” as exemplified by “women and minorities”.
