    Ranked-choice voting has been implemented elsewhere. It reduces the incidence of ‘strategic voting’, where voters see that their preferred candidate is non-viable, and so vote for a candidate that they dislike (but less than the other leading candidate).

    The point isn’t ‘quality of candidates’, which is highly subjective, but to more accurately reflect the will of the voters.
