Dear Jan,
I saw your post on the Elections Methods
List. As a Vermont legislator, we may have to decide the issue of IRV on a
statewide basis. To be honest, I'm not very enthusiastic about
IRV. I would prefer to support the candidate (not plural) of my choice,
and if a runoff must occur between candidates I didn't support, then make a new
decision based on the contest at hand.
What are the problems you see with
IRV? Could you explain them in a way that people without a statistics
degree (like me) could comprehend? I hope you have a chance to
respond---you seem quite knowledgeable on the topic!
Best Regards,
Rep. Jim Condon
Colchester,
VT
