I am very much in favor of RCV but it is not the magic bullet solution people think it is. Definitely support it, definitely good for people to get involved, but people need to be a little careful of overpromising what it can deliver. It is a critical part of much-needed but comprehensive reform, not THE reform itself.
Nobody thinks its a magic bullet, we’re all looking for the next rung that leads us closer to a happy democracy. None of us are looking for instant easy solutions, we’re trying to iterate and be better.

No no I get that I should’ve been clearer. I just see it a LOT and folks do seem to think it’ll be a cure. I shouldn’t have implied you meant that.
In other words, It’s necessary but not sufficient for reforming the two party system.
It would certainly help!
