Most european countries use 2 round elections or proportional representation.

In Britain, they use First-Past-The-Post.

    Ranked-Choice voting can be used for multi-seat elections as well, essentially voter ranks the top x candidates from the full pool. After the first seat is selected the tally continues by removing the first seat name from the pool to appoint the second seat.

    I am from the US in a city where we have rank choice local elections, so “strong party” style elections where you vote for a party not a candidate seem frankly wildly unaccountable. I see no advantage to this system for the voters over individual candidates.
