Communist Zombie posted:Are there any examples of 'anti-vote' options where you actively reject one or all of the candidates, other than 'none of the above' in Nevada, iirc? I'm especially interested if theres been any done in STV or similar voting methods. This may not be quite what you meant, but that's how voting works in some single-party states like Cuba. You either vote for the person the communist party has selected for whatever post, or you vote against them and in theory, when a candidate is rejected by a majority of voters, the communist party selects someone else.

IRV isn't necessarily worse than pure FPTP but it does very little to correct the problems. It inherently favours candidates with a wide appeal, meaning it will always benefit centrists more than extremes on either side. You can argue that's a beneficial quality, but I don't think it necessarily reflects the will of the voter much more than FPTP.
