Exactly, where with the current system votes for a candidate may end up getting someone else elected, and you get strategic voting instead of voting for what you want.
if they refuse to support the candidate that leftists are supporting, and their candidate won’t support leftist policies, then their vote for a milquetoast candidate will end up getting trump elected just like in 2016
I don’t know much about US politics so no clue who’s “they”, who are the “leftists” here, and who’s the “milquetoast candidate”. So not sure if you are agreeing or not. Either way my point is that ranked choice voting makes voting for less popular candidates feasible, and US seems to be a good example where it could help, though certainly not the only example.
great news, the only votes that help any candidate are votes for that candidate!

They probably could if it was ranked choice, but it isn’t.
