Canada didn’t really reject the right. The Conservatives got 41.3% of the vote, which is at almost historic highs, and without any other context politics watchers would expect that to net them a majority government. However, almost all the other voters coalesced around one other party.
That’s making a lot of assumptions which I don’t think are accurate. We know strategic voting is a thing. While I don’t think we have numbers of how many vote strategically, I think it’s safe to say most of them went to the Liberals given their advantage in the pre-election polls.
I’m not saying that the Liberals would have some poorly in RCV, but we can’t just assume everyone’s vote was also their first choice. And then we’d also have to get into how a different system would change the campaign, etc.
