They don't currently do so, so why would they do so in the future?
It is not completely unexpected for a tie to occur and, when that happens under Plurality (First-Past-The-Post), the winner has generally been determined by random.

I think voters will reject any method that isn't deterministic except in the case where a true tie requires a resolution.
