    Replacing it with the next least bad option at least opens the door for making further changes in the future (ie. hopefully breaking the two-party deadlock).

      I think I disagree with the idea that it opens the door. If anything, I think implementing RCV would more likely poison the well, at best leading to “didn’t we just change how we vote?” apathy/exasperation when another ballot initiative came around.

      Of course, that could be a consequence of RCV failing on the ballot as well.
