What is range voting? Basically, what it means is that instead of casting just one vote for one candidate, you can rate each candidate on a scale, -10 to +10. Winner is the candidate with the highest average score where more than some percentage of people expressed an opinion on them. It solves the "spoiler effect" problem where Libertarians "steal" votes from Republicans and Greens "steal" votes from Democrats. If you like the Libertarian and Republican equally, then rate both the same. This method is mathematically proven to be better than simple "one man, one vote" systems.

Here's the poll that I created for the express purpose of gauging THR's preferences.

Dude it's been said hunderds of times, you can't hot-link to polls. If you do the poll has 60% of it's hits coming from THR and they rightly decide it's invalid. Make it so people have to copy and paste.

edit- ah I see.

The poll was created by me especially for THR. Sorry for not specifying that.
 
BTT because it's an external poll and doesn't get bumped when people vote
