    The US is constitutionally saddled with first past the post voting, which makes more than two parties difficult to represent at the national level. For some reason the two existing parties are unwilling to change that.

        Nothing stopping us but the people in various states that vote down attempts to implement it or the legislature critters that seek to outlaw it.

      Misinformation. I literally vote rank choice in the US.

        Over a dozen states have already banned ranked choice voting. The establishment knows that if it were to catch on then elected officials will more accurately reflect the actual will of the people and undermine the liberal hegemony, so they banned it.
