Reply #256: "We have caucus results in Iowa where candidates who did not meet the viability threshold cooperated

[Leopolds Ghost]

This is known as Instant Runoff Voting. It is a GOOD THING
and would lead to open elections if applied nationally to
eliminate the two-party duopoly. Other major democracies use it.

In fact, without Instant Runoff Voting there would be NO NEED
for a PARTY CONVENTION. Hillary is depending on runoff voting
to get the nod in Denver. That is what party conventions are
there for. It's just that ordinarily, an HONEST brokered
convention involves multiple strong candidates coalescing
around a single candidate, not a single losing candidate
trying to reduce the winner's margin!
