Runoff voting - good for Virginia?Voices, by Nathan Larson, The Augusta Free Press:
This Election Day, 1.5 million voters in Minneapolis, Pierce County, Wash., Davis, Calif., and Oakland, Calif., will decide whether they want to switch to a new voting system called Instant Runoff Voting, or IRV. I hope these measures pass. IRV can help ensure majority rule and prevent third-party candidates from becoming spoilers....
We support the endorsement, but the value of IRV is to serve voters. IRV in a NON-PARTISAN race can help elect the choice of voters, not the parties. -NH
