[lbo-talk] Nader the Condorcet Winner in 2000

[Robert D. Day]

DH's criticism is valid up to a point. What things like Condorcet DO tell us
is where most Democrats' priorities are. Rather than vent their spleen at
fundamental problems of American elections like the electoral college, lack
of IRV, antiquated voting technology, gerrymandering, etc., Democrats seem
to reserve their greatest venom for Nader. This tells us quite a bit about
the world we unfortunately live in.

That's all very nice, but we don't have a voting system like that in
the U.S. So, we've either got to change the system, cope with its
constraints, or follow Chuck0 and ignore the whole damn thing. This
exercise doesn't really tell us much about the world we unfortunately
live in.
