Admiral Snaccbar @Chris Mench Serving shrimp with the tail still on when it’s already mixed into something (pasta, rice, etc) is insane.

    I know there is the Ranked Choice Voting concept which sounds appealing. I’ll read on this too. Thank you for the information!

      Ranked Choice is an Ordinal voting system that fails Arrow’s Theorem.

      In some rare cases, it can produce a result even worse than First Past the Post. There are a bunch of flaws in RCV, because it was invented before mathematical evaluation was as robust as it is these days.

      Simulation, and some unfortunate real world examples, show that if you vote in and election with at least three somewhat viable candidates, and keep strategy in mind, you can rate your preferred candidate second and improve their chances of winning.

      No voting system should be able to do this. RCV has more flaws in addition to this already game breaking one.
