It makes voting and counting votes more complex. It makes audits and recounts harder.

IRV also hurts third parties, if they aren't already powerful, they cannot gain power with IRV.

IRV will lead to a demand for more complex technology. This makes it harder to detect fraud or miscounts. NC voters can't even vote a straight ticket correctly, and now someone wants to make voting more complicated?

Had NC used IRV in the May 2008, we might have suffered a Florida-style election meltdown. It's a little premature to be selecting elections to use for future elections until we know what the risk was, and if IRV can be used in the future according to NC election laws
