Ranked Choice Voting Elected Hitler, so says the NYT's "fake" conservative David Brooks:

"The proportional multiparty system allowed an extremist named Adolf Hitler to rise to power with the initial support of a tiny fraction of Germany’s voters."

Allende was elected with a small purality; rcv allows candidates who have a small purality to win. Rcv is a ticket to mayhem.

Why should the voters want to choose who should be in second place? I know that's not a completely accurate view of the situation, but people are supposed to vote for only one candidate for a specific elected position,. It's not a dumb multiple-choice question from high school. You have one office, and you get one vote for filling that office. How difficult is that?
