Still, you have to admit that this horse race is sort of fun!
This horse race is fun, but it just made me wonder.

I think this part of the voting would still be fun either way. It also seems like more people would be invested in the winner that way, so I'm surprised you would say the winner would have little support? That would be as if we had a run-off between 1984 and AK...I don't see how the winner would have little support either way. Only more votes from the people who used their first vote on a book with less support and would now have the opportunity to have a say in which of the top two (or so) books they'd rather read...

Anyway, I'm not necessarily lobbying for a change. It was just an idea I had that interested me that I decided to throw out there and see what others thought.
