FPTP is unequivocally broken.<p>Voting for &quot;who you want to win, period&quot; doesn&#x27;t help in FPTP. Then you just get vote splitting - the majority of the population would prefer either of parties A and B to party C, but they have different favourites, so A and B each get 30% of the vote, while C gets 40%. So the party most of the population hates wins.<p>Tactical voting is IMO preferable to this outcome.
