Ranked-Choice Voting

There's a lot going on in the news right now. A lot of violence, a lot of climate change, a lot of wage disparity, a lot of discrimination... just a lot. We can combat these issues is by taking action locally, through protests community events, volunteering, and personal interactions/behavior. And, we can make other changes through our government.
Voting has gotten a bad rap because we always seem to be voting for the "lesser of two evils." It's not exciting, but necessary, because the greater of the two evils is pretty bad. Also, third party voting could throw the whole election into chaos and allow someone who nobody wanted to win to gain power.
Now, if we switched to ranked-choice voting we wouldn't have that problem. Everyone could vote for who they wanted, then, if that person didn't get the majority, then their second choice would come up. If there were several people in the race, the math would get more complicated, but it would still be better than what we have, which is awful. There's absolutely no reason why someone should be scared to vote for the person they want to vote for just because they're afraid it might get the bad guy elected. Ranked-choice voting would allow them to vote their conscious and maybe find out that they're not the only one who felt that way.

Also I'm wondering if it's possible the front-runners are only front-runners because people are afraid to vote for who they actually want in office. They're afraid that their person won't win, so they vote for the "obvious" candidate. Ranked-choice voting might give us a chance to see what the voter are actually looking for. Let's give it a shot.
