I've got to confess that while I will vote for Biden/Harris if they're the D nominees, when I see so many Biden/Harris super fans here, it feels pretty weird. Our whole system is a mess. We need ranked choice voting across the board, no Gerrymandering, and increased campaign finance regulations.

(What I mean is seeing Biden support that seems entirely uncritical is a red flag for me.)

The idea is that folks know voting for a "long shot" won't "take votes away" from a more mainstream candidate.

That IS a good thing. Over time then voters learn this isn’t a wasted vote and are more likely to select a candidate that closely matches their values (as far as is possible) for their first choice with a more pragmatic choice as back up AND it encourages more long shot candidates?
