Ranked-choice voting in Minneapolis

Minneapolis voters use ranked-choice voting to elect candidates. Check out this video to learn how to vote using ranked-choice voting and see how it's counted.

I like this because we can vote for the people we want most without the "spoiler" effect on one of the races. I wish to see this everywhere including federal races

It should be stated that voters are not required to do the ranked-choice voting. They can still select only one candidate if they do not want any other candidates to receive their vote.

"STAR Voting" Method is the best voting method (Equality, Accuracy, Honesty, Expressiveness and Simplicity.
Another great voting method: "Approval Voting" (Simple and Accurate).
"RCV (IRV)" is an improvement over the current "pick-one" voting method.

This would be more realistic if you had 35 candidates running for Mayor and 33 rounds of counting. But that would make this video 72 hours long.

This should not be taking place. There is one way to vote. Vote for 1 person, from each class. 30 people running for mayor? So what. You get one vote. 2 people running for mayor? You get one vote. If you vote for Zac, Omar SHOULD NOT end up with Zacs' vote. Quit rigging elections.
