They are not nonpartisan as the name implies. To be so would mean they back one man one vote with the winner having the most votes. They do not. They wish endless rounds of voting that favors those whose ideas cannot stand up to a straight head to head vote.
Basically, voters choose the least hated choice, rather than the most beloved choice.
Actually, rank choice voting means that if my candidate is not on top, it's quite likely a candidate whom I can support will be in the running. True for all political persuasions. Of course candidates on the extremes don't like it because they tend to get eliminated early on by the general sentiments of the voters.
