They think if the populace supports RCV when they vote, this magical RCV prayer will translate into reality. They have no analysis of mechanisms for why society progresses, they are idealists and utopians.

"Convince people to support RCV" okay, then what? How does this make a difference? Praying harder? They act like 40k ork magic is real.

I live in a state with RCV. Nothing has changed.
