I’m good with a general election runoff like GA has if no candidate reaches 45% in the November general election (following normal party primaries and runoffs). Franken would have lost 1 on 1, McAwful as well.
But under no circumstances should we allow democrats to choose between 2 Republicans or worse, have no Republican make the runoff. Republican primaries should be closed and a single Republican candidate should on the general election ballot. Jungle primaries blow. Cali is doing that now as well, with the primary before hand and the general in November. It worked up for us in one race, a rat leaning seat had a 2-Republican runoff, but it’s more likely to hurt us like it just did in LA where democrats helped elect the RINO.
In my state our Rat Governor Quinn may have lost 1 on 1 as well. The rat candidate for LT. Governor was forced off the ballot for domestic violence so he ran for Governor as an indie. We all laughed at the time but he ended up taking anti-Quinn democrat votes that could have ended up crossing over for us.
Similar to Dean Barkley getting anti-Franken democrat votes in MN.
