By "cheating" he means candidates on the left and center were willing to drop out of the ranked choice race in order to prevent Nazis from being elected. Just like America! My memory's fuzzy; do we have ranked choice elections in the US, or ... ?

No rules or laws were broken in France, by the way. Nothing says you can't drop out of the race, nothing says you can't make agreements with an opponent to make sure the stronger of you beats the fascists and the weaker walks away. It's "cheating" when they don't get their way. That's all.

My mistake, thanks for the correction.
Not "Ranked Choice", it's two round voting, which is a different solution to the problem of making FPTP less awful.

I was thinking. If it was ranked choice, nobody would have to drop out. (and you'd get a lot more campaigns mentioning their No.2)

Some states do have ranked choice voting -- at present, WA state does not, though we do have a ton of other voting protections and benefits, which is awesome.

Not that this is what he means, but technically, that is how Biden got the Democratic nomination.
