        You have absolutely no evidence to state that Perdue would have won without a runoff. The campaigns were based on the knowledge there might be a runoff. Voters voted with that in mind as well. Terrible article.

        Run-offs serve an important function as part of the primary process. It's not a good idea to send a candidate to a general who received only, say, 20% of the vote in a primary. If we had them for presidential primaries, Trump would never have gotten the nomination.

        "[Fla.] voters rejected a jungle primary, while [Mass.] voters rejected ranked-choice voting. Those were wise decisions." What's wrong with these reforms? I mean, besides not being "the normal, traditional American system." Have you taken full measure of the latter's flaws?

        I disagree with what you say about CA and runoffs. I think it's a centralizing feature. If a gen election is between two Dems, it's still good for conservatives because they can help the less-extreme Democrat get elected.

        Under a conventional system, winning the Democratic CA primary (even as a radical) is tantamount to winning the gen election, especially in Senate+House races. Also, a runoff system would make it much easier for a centrist third party candidate to win.
