There is no RationalWiki without you. We are a small non-profit with no staff—we are hundreds of volunteers who document pseudoscience and crankery around the world every day. We will never allow ads because we must remain independent. We cannot rely on big donors with corresponding big agendas. We are not the largest website around, but we believe we play an important role in defending truth and objectivity. |
Fighting pseudoscience isn't free. We are 100% user-supported! Help and donate $5, $10, $20 or whatever you can today with ![]() ![]() |

Various systems[edit]
CGP Grey has a series of videos on different voting systems and there is a kind of ranking from "worst" to "best":
- First Past the Post
- Alternative Vote (aka Instant Runoff voting (eliminates spoiler effect)
- Mixed-Member Proportional Representation (counters gerrymandering and minority rule. Allows political diversity)
- Single Transferable Vote (tries to make sure that votes are not "wasted")
For those wanting a simple view of these system there videos are a great help.--BruceGrubb (talk) 14:21, 20 August 2017 (UTC)
