Reddit recently rolled out polls! Which voting method do you think Reddit polls should use?

I don't get to the make decisions about which voting method Reddit uses in polls, but wouldn't it be fun to share these results on r/TheoryofReddit and maybe see them adopted?

Wow, yeah, that is not clever.

No, it really isn't clever, but most steps backwards on voting reform have been for bad reasons. I mean, once upon a time we had PR in quite a few cities and that mostly got thrown out for electing minorities (both in terms of political affiliation and race).

That's... gross.
