So what does this tell us about the many thousands of public
elections and civic organisation elections that have been conducted by
the IRV voting system since it was introduced for public elections
around 100 years ago?
For starters, what is being proposed in the U.S. isn't that system.
It wasn't called "instant runoff voting," and the rules are
different. Smoke that!
