Conventional wisdom says third-party candidates like Jill Stein and Cornel West help Republicans by pulling left-leaning voters away from Democrats. But what if conventional wisdom is wrong?
In a recent FairVote poll, 66% of Jill Stein voters said they’d vote for Trump if Stein weren’t on the ballot—the highest support for Trump out of the major third-party candidates this year.
So what’s going on? Years of Democratic efforts to kick Green Party candidates off the ballot might be turning natural allies into opponents. It’s a big flaw in our winner-take-all system—where coalition-building is discouraged, and voters feel unheard.
This is where ranked-choice voting comes in. RCV would let Green Party candidates support their preferred major party candidate, making elections fairer and reducing the need for courtroom battles over ballot access.
What do you think? Does RCV fix the problem?
