A key part of the New York City mayoral races was Ranked Choice Voting.

I'm not seeing many news articles mention this yet (correct me if I'm wrong though!).

Ranked choice let's us vote first for who we actually want.... and then put in backup votes for "good enough" candidates and allows us to compromise and find common ground.

It destroys the concepts of "lesser of two evils" and "throwing away your vote".

I hope we see Ranked Choice voting everywhere.

@tinker I'm still so upset Colorado threw away their chance :( so much funding went into misinfo around it, how it would make elections super complicated and cost more

There's that Atlantic article against it, which is pretty not surprisingly shitty of them.
