p.s. Wouldn't surprise me if RCV polling is actually easier in the long run, at least in the sense of a poll predicting the right winner. It's arguably a more robust system given that a candidate needs to have broad support rather than e.g. flukishly winning with 21% of the vote. — PolitiTweet.org

If you're absolutely terrified of RCV then just do a first-past-the-post poll where you ask just about first preferences and compare it actual first preferences. That's *lame* and less useful than an RCV poll would be, but at least it removes the excuse that RCV is too hard. — PolitiTweet.org

I suppose one useful Bayesian question is: How many cities around the world house major research facilities into coronaviruses (especially gain-of-function research) vs. How many are close to potential animal reservoirs of coronaviruses? — PolitiTweet.org
