    This functionally means you would be voting red. Your spoiler-vote protest

    It’s not a protest vote. I want the Greens to win. And if everyone voted Green, then the Greens would win.

    Maybe you’re preventing the Greens from winning by voting Blue.

      Ok, so it is just a spoiler vote. The greens don’t have a chance and never have. Sorry, it is still real world vs pipedream. This is where ranked choice would come in. People could vote green with blue as a second choice. When green inevitably loses, then your votes would go blue instead of red, like they will now.

      A full swap from blue to green by the entire party is a prisoners dilemma AT BEST.
