Reply #12: You want IRV when we can't count votes right the first time? [View All]

who do you want IRV for, the Green Party?

I have been working on election reform since Sept 2003, and found that no good
can come from IRV.

IRV is just another way to hide vote rigging

It is extremely hard to count and recounts would be very expensive and difficult.
IRV doesn't work, it hasn't elected any Greens in San Francisco,
it has failed to produce a majority winner in 20 of 20 IRV contests,
its extremely hard to audit,
the software used in San Francisco from 2003-2007 had a flaw in the "algorithm" that counts the votes.

IRV favors candidates with name recognition.
The person with the most votes in the first round ends up winning, but it just costs more and is far
more difficult to count.
