@cjm One problem I have with ranked choice voting is what if I can't rank all the candidates? Maybe I have one I want elected, or maybe I have one I don't want elected, but the rest I don't care about who's two, three or four. What do I put on my ballot there, then?

@cy you should never rank someone you do not want elected. If you only truly like 1 candidate, then rank them 1st and do not rank any more. That is how you do not give any support to a candidate you do not want elected.
If you have a favorite and there is also someone who you would rather have instead of the one you really do not want (and only if your favorite can’t win) then rank your favorite 1st and your backup 2nd and that is all.

@cjm But if I really don't want a candidate elected, then I have to just randomly rank the ones I don't care about, and leave that one candidate unranked.

@cy it allows you to provide more of your overall intent than the current system.
