Trying to build viable third parties by voting for them in presidential elections is like trying to build a third door in your house by repeatedly walking into the wall where you want the door to be. (lemmy.world)

If people vote in the primaries for candidates who support ranked choice voting, then yes.

What primary? What candidate? I can't even find somebody who doesn't support genocide much less rank choice.

Check at the state level. A few states have introduced ranked choice, your state may have someone in the mix trying to make it a thing where you live!

Political regime is captured by AIPAC, they must be forced to register as a foreign agent, otherwise genocide will continue until arabs are not longer living within Palestine.
