Btw what's up with all these states up and banning Ranked Choice Voting? Most of them in the past 1-2 years too. I'm not exactly sure of the context, like if there was a bill or a referendum, but with a referendum I would have expected it to say "rejected"/"not adopted", instead of "banned". Definitely seems like RCV needs to be really fought for, and seems like the major parties are afraid of it.

It's almost like it threatens their duopoly power

RCV experiments have gotten a lot of backlash from establishment parties, usually because they lost and they want to blame the "new process" instead of their platforms, policies, or actions.
