You're taking only the second choice of the eliminated candidates because the point of the second choice is that is who you would vote for if your first choice isn't running. So why would you count the second choice of those whose candidates are still in the running? That makes no sense.The flaw is that it favors the voters that supported the idiotic candidate. That's the problem that most of us up here are talking about. This system was presented to us that it helps a more moderate candidate but that won't always be the case.
Quote:Your system also would be difficult to implement and have to be constantly changing depending on how many candidates there were on a ballot as you would need to reassign point values and would be more difficult to handle for elections with multiple winners.How? The only time there would need to be a change would be like the recent election when there are only three people. If there are eight people on the ballot you still only need to rank your top three, not #1 through #8.
