Ranked choice voting consistently elected the furthest right democrat for Mayor of Minneapolis and sunk a socialist city councilor. The problem is that normie democrats that don't really have a strong preference between which Democrat wins have just as much pull as people who have very strong opinions. STAR voting is a MUCH better system, it encourages honest voting (RCV does not, it is only safe to vote your top choice first if they are very strong or very weak). If you would be just as happy between two candidates you can express that.

So far it's a sorry list of candidates, but Eric Adams must be the worst of the lot. I'll vote for the most right-wing of Republicans over this jerk.
