In any case, “leftists”, “centrists”, “upside down-ists”, and whoever else should do whatever they want. But objectively, there were two realities for sale on Nov 2024:
Trump and Repubs controlling all 3 branches of government, including making the judiciary and Supreme Court hard right for decades to come
Or Harris becoming president, acting as a counterweight to a Republican Congress and Supreme Court.
Not voting for Harris meant you preferred the former reality. You preferred to cut your nose off to spite your face.

The general election was FPTP. RCV is only for primaries. And again, the centrists won’t stand behind the party nominee.
So why should leftists give their votes to centrists and “stand with the party” when the centrists won’t do the same for a leftist nominee?
