He isn’t elected yet, is he?

Just as the Democratic nominee.

He still has to win the general election and looks like cumbucket coumo is going to run against him as an independent to split the vote and hope that the Republican can manage to win.

~~Lol. Idiots don't even know how ranked choice works. You can't split the vote in an RCV campaign (spoiler effects still exist, but they're much harder to directly do like this)~~

~~Even the fucking polling is getting it wrong.~~

Nvm, shit FPTP for generals

"You can be cocky or wrong, but not both" 😛

Good on you for the edit though

~~That's my mistake~~ I thought only the primary was rcv but the general election wasn't.

This specifically mentioned primary and special elections, not general.

As far as I know only the primary uses ranked choice, not the general election?
