Primaries are nothing like ranked choice voting in the outcomes they produce.
I believe the only reason a “crazy second choice” exists is because we have such limited options to choose from when voting.
With rank choice voting, more candidates could run within a party without competing for votes because you would be able to vote for all of your favorite people in order without worrying what party they fall into.
We could vote for people we like instead of voting to avoid the person we hate.
Those are a formality…
There is no law that would force a party to run the person who won their primary.
After the last couple of years, I struggle to understand how people think that’s “good enough”.
