Lizza keeps an eye on it:
[Nelson Polsby, author of "Consequences of Party Reform"] pointed out that when voters can only choose one person in a multi-candidate field, it becomes difficult to divine what the electorate is really saying. "Once the number of alternatives available to an electorate rises above two, and so long as only first choices of voters are counted, there is a nontrivial likelihood that the plurality winner of such an election will turn out to be unwanted by a majority." Mitt Romney continues to be the kind of plurality winner Polsby warned party leaders about. After twenty-three contests, Romney has secured 3,219,648 votes out of 8,094,438 cast. His share of the total vote is 39.8 per cent.
