Part of this is that NYC needed to learn the hard way how to use their votes in this system. Eric Adams got the mayoralty partly because New Yorkers thought that you put the worst person at your lowest rank. That bizarrely got him an absurd number of fifth-round votes and launched him into the seat.
This time around, everyone was clear on the message of "Vote for me and this other person who aligns with me, and DO NOT RANK CUOMO!"
