If the popular vote shakes out 30% Joe 70% Not Joe should it go to Joe? Should Hillary have been the 2008 nominee after the popular vote fuckery then? I honestly just think that's a worse system than the delegates. In a sane one we would at LEAST have a runoff but here you just have to hope the party recognizes the strength of a plurality and votes to support. I honestly think Bernie is full of shit when he says it should go to the FPTP vote leader since he has argued for ranked choice in the past. But now it benefits him not to. this is a pointless question to ask and you know it - not only can i not actually now what i would do in this situation until it happens, even if i felt like i would be arguing that biden shouldn't get it in this scenario, why would i admit to that? edit: as to your second point, i can't be sure of course but i'm pretty sure if we were still in the rules-forming stages of this thing bernie would be arguing for ranked choice still. but yeah, the whole thing is a mess and there's no good way to handle it at this point if no one gets the magic number. the whole thing is going to be a fucking disaster and we will more than likely end up with trump again, because the democrats can't ever get their act together. --- [various robot sounds] <cite>pxlated posted [p:934648053] in Politics C...
