I don't know if Instant Runoff Voting (IRV) has
been mentioned here yet, but it's definitely worth a
look. Among other things, it makes the "a vote for
Nader is a vote for Bush" argument completely
irrelevant.

<a href=http://www.fairvote.org/irv/ target=new>http://www.fairvote.org/irv/</a> has more information on
IRV.

<a href=http://www.fairvote.org/irv/muppets/index.html target=new>http://www.fairvote.org/irv/muppets/index.html</a> has a very enlightening demo of the technique
involving the Muppets. (Cute, too.)

Have fun!
