Trump won with 32% of eligible voters.

Yes, but (admittedly, I was off by .3%) he still won more votes than his opponent.

In fact, a PR system may have enabled him further as presumably not all of RFK's voters followed to trump BUT in a PR system that wouldn't matter. As long as they voted for RFK and he teamed up with trump A) their wishes wouldn't matter and B) he could hold trump hostage for even crazier anti vax stuff.

What does RFK have to do with anything.

Think through the logic of the 2024 election but under a PR system...
