How do you mitigate the spoiler effect in IRV when the runner-up causes it? I offer an improved version of IRV, user:RalphInOttawa/Standard Vote, that does not let spoilers ruin an election. Voters should never have to accept real life results like the 2009 Burlington Mayoral Election and the 2022 Alaska’s at-large congressional district special election. These results may not be grounds for legal challenges but they should be enough for governments to stop using voting systems that can do that to their voters.
