I am from Alaska and I love that we have FPTP/Ranked Choice. A lot of my coworkers are super right leaning, and have been crying that ranked choice is the only reason any left leaning candidates have won. They want to ditch it and return to the old archaic system.
I've tried and tried to explain how it's such a better system, and that it means that you can vote for the person you actually want, instead of the 'if I don't vote for this guy, the other guy who I definitely don't like will win'. They just didn't get it; they kept going on and on about how 'Oh you just want people to be able to vote twice. people should only get to vote once' 🤦
