We don't get to vote for the best option because we don't have ranked choice voting.

We will always be voting for the lesser of two evils because we are afraid of throwing our vote away on a third party or lesser known candidate.

If we had ranked choice voting, we could actually vote for people we like instead of voting against people we don't like.

It would open the doors for so many new politicians to stand a chance against the ones who simply have the most name recognition.
