3. Instant runoff voting is a recipe for disaster.
I would no more trust a computer to conduct a runoff election than to conduct a simple 2-candidate contest.

If you want to reform either or both of the 2 major parties, the way to do it is in the Primaries. That's where many general elections are decided.
