I'm not sure why people are assuming this is going to be bad for Republicans. Clinton only won by 3% of the votes in 2016 and the Second district went for Trump, giving him one electoral vote. If we had ranked choice voting in 2016, Trump may well have won the whole state.
Ranked choice voting is used for making selections in many contests with multiple candidates, such as the Heisman Trophy. It's used widely. 51% is fair when you have two candidates. When there are multiple candidates, ranked choice voting gives a fairer outcome.
