When just 2 people are running, democracy is a pretty good way of selecting government of the people. However, when you have going on 30 candidates, the winner simply needs more votes than anyone else who actually won by having most people vote AGAINST them. In the case of the GOP presidential primary, potentially a landslide number of voters can vote against the candidate who wins. Does this concern you and if so, do you have a better idea that could get the most favored candidate selected?
