Ned, what gives you confidence (given the urgency) that condorcet (which is a great fix) can be adopted before the "urgency" happens? A fair argument is wethepeople may have run (stumbled) out the clock for doing it.
With no presidential candidate as clear successor to the previous candidates, I think working towards Top 3 Condorcet in 2028 or 2032 should be easier than in the past. Voters may be tiring of extremism and hunger for a process that gives better chances to moderates and encourages voting for rather than against individuals. There remain two major marketing obstacles to moving forward: 1) Confusion with Top 2, 4 or Final 5, and clarity that RCV is NOT required for Top 3.
