    And giving two candidates the same rank? You are pretending that I wrote it is hard to do. I wrote that it is easier to spoil a ballot. People make mistakes.

    Needing to rank candidates relative to each other is different from score voting where you just rank them.

      A proper RCV ballot is just numbering candidates. On a computer screen, you might drag the names into order. Score voting isn’t just ranking them, you give each one a rating and then there’s about 3 different ways those scores can be used to determine a winner. RCV is simple, easy, and better than FPTP.
