If we define right-wing as being (falsely) bigoted* then first past the post is not right wing. (It is left-wing.) There is no assumption supporting fptp which is incorrect... apart from statism. Fptp is bad not because of any bigotry but because those who support it fail to see the truth that pr is better. Adherents of fptp are blind to the advantages of pr... which means they must be blind to the advantages of freedom. People who like fptp are content to be lead by the government. It is because people like the government that they like fptp. No anarchist would want fptp because the choice is too limited. Anarchists like pr.
*In some way other than being in favour of the state.
