Does anyone support such a Condorcet approach? Is it used anywhere in
political contests?

The only time a Condorcet method has been used in an actual public
election (as opposed to corporate or nonprofit elections) it was the
better part of a century ago in the Upper Peninsula, Michigan county
(where I live) of Marquette.  For reasons not completely known to me,
it was abandoned.  IRV is not a true Condorcet-style election.
