Sorry, can't really comment on that as I didn't know it until now. It may be something that works more effectively in that sort of situation that in a full election.
I suppose it allows people not only to vote for a particular person but to use their second and third choices to try and prevent a particular person getting picked. That would make it easier for compromise candidates to win.
