IRV FAQ:
Courts in various jurisdictions have ruled that instant runoff elections fully comply with the principle of "one person, one vote" & give equal weight to each voter.

IRV 101: Instant runoff voting simulates a "runoff" but in a single decisive election so that voters need to turnout only once to vote.

How can IRV impact an election? In 1992, most of Ross Perot's voters likely would have ranked HW Bush second, so HW Bush would likely have won over Bill Clinton, hence an IRV win for the Republicans.

IRV benefits for local/municipal elections:
1) Rewards candidates who appeal to a broad base of voters.
2) Reduces the incentive for candidates to attack their opponents.
3) Promotes more civil, issue-oriented campaigns.
4) Fosters coalition-building & discovering shared goals.
