9. Yes it does, however IRV is still at risk for the problem we have now which is
strategic voting, or voting against candidates instead of for them.

Australia also has some other differences in the make-up of its congressional body system that help IRV be more successful than it is here, too, I think. I'm pretty sure it's not set up exactly like our Senate and Congress. (Although I might be wrong there. I'm not an expert on Australia. :) )
