I understand how it will work and once again the winner will be decided by someone outside their specific party. In the case of GA it is Losertarians in state-wide races. So instead of simply siphoning votes from the only truly viable candidates in a clearly lost cause, you now basically empower the loser's voters to choose the winner. I say if they want that role they need to go back out to the polls in a runoff. But they don't and the winner is decided by the candidate's primary supporters....the way it ought to be. And not by voters who clearly preferred another candidate. It's all BS. Besides that, the GA legislature will never go for it so it is DOA.
