Okay, so First Past The Post voting sucks because the person disliked the most can win. is there a voting system that can use a vote both for most wanted and LEAST wanted (not second or third most wanted)?

For example, lets say there are 5 candidates. I like two of them but am most desperate that a certain one of them doesn't get elected. I've seen voting systems that allow for your first, second, and third choices, but I don't know of one that accounts for your dislikes as well as your preferences. Is there one out there?

This is primarily a political sciences or mathematics/statistics question, but I suppose could also be part of social sciences.

The alternative vote system already does this. If you rank the candidates in order of preference, you are making distinctly clear your dislikes. If you don't care which of the two middle candidates gets elected, just assign their preferences randomly.
