Maybe it’s because I grew up in Illinois, but Missouri has been giving me whiplash over the last several years. I’d expect the kinda politics coming out of there from Florida, not a Midwestern state.
So did the rest of Oregon and it wasn’t even close. Too many people fell for the “it’s too confusing” propaganda, which is just another way to call the voters dumb, but maybe they’re not wrong.
When corporations benefit: Americans can read like 900 pages of fine print a minute and are all legal scholars.
When it doesn’t benefit corps: Americans are cows, its offensive you’re trying to make these morons fill out multiple choice papers, they might accidentally poke out an eye on the pens.
Reality: people have limits but RCV ballots are not too complicated. We see it all the time with roundabouts. When new roundabout is put in a few drivers take some time to adjust but eventually they figure it out.
The change is harder to deal with than the actual thing.
I’m still pissed that Coloradans voted down RCV on the ballot this season.
The word isn’t out on it yet. Not really. It’s pretty academic.

Maybe it’s me being from Ohio, but what’s the difference anymore?

Its just corporations having it both ways:

I don’t know how it’s confusing.
Rank your top 5 favorite foods.
If you can do this, you can do ranked choice voting.
Counting to five, too complicated for voters.
See, you already lost me in all this confusion. I don’t know what I’m supposed to do.
