They don't have a track record of success and do have several examples of failure from the few places that have tried them and variations of them --- from insincere voting in figure skating competitions in the Olympics to concerns about tactical voting in elections for the Dartmouth board of trustees.<BR/><BR/>Meanwhile, instant runoff voting has been used for national elections, major city elections and dozens of significant private organization elections. It's recommended by Robert's Rules of Order, picked by the American Political Science Association for its own leadership elections and endorsed by numerous state League of Women Voters groups after comprehensive studies.<BR/><BR/>It's also clearly popular with voters, both in exit polls where it's used and as a ballot measure (it's won 10 straight times on the ballot, typically by landslide margins).<BR/><BR/>More to be found at www.fairvote.org/irg and www.instantrunoff.com<BR/><BR/>For more on limitations of range voting and approval voting (the most fundamental of which is that indicating supporter for lesser choices can help defeat higher choices), see www.fairvote.org/rangevotingAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
