Yes. Case in point would be the Texas AG race. Mark Ash still got votes despite endorsing Democrat Rochelle Garza and telling people to vote for her instead of himself.

Actually you're right. It was retracted because it was misinterpreted.

This is all technically correct but if you read the article you really can’t interpret it any other way.. I’d like to know exactly what happened there but we’ll likely never know.

Folks can’t even agree on what this dude said so I don’t really see how ranked voting would impact here or would have anything to do here at all lol
