Difference between Instant-runoff voting and Wasted vote

Instant-runoff voting vs. Wasted vote

Instant-runoff voting (IRV), also known as ranked-choice voting or the alternative vote (AV), combines ranked voting (in which voters rank candidates rather than choosing only a single preferred candidate) together with a system for choosing winners from these rankings by repeatedly eliminating the candidate with the fewest first-place votes and reassigning their votes until only one candidate is left. In electoral systems, a wasted vote is any vote cast that does not impact the final election outcome.
