Plurality with elimination, Runoff method, Condorcet criterion
Plurality with Elimination • Each voter votes for one candidate. • A candidate that receiving themajority of the votes is declared the winner. • If no candidate receives a majority of the votes, then the candidate/candidates with the fewest votes is dropped from the ballot and a new election is held. • You follow this process until a candidate receives a majority of votes.
Run – off Method You only keep the top two first place voters and have an election between those two.
Condorcet Criterion If candidate X can defeat each of the other candidates in a head-to-head vote, then X is the winner of the election. Say you have candidates: A,B,C,D First say A vs. B if B wins Then try B vs. C if B wins Then try B vs. D However, if C won in step 2 then you have to go back and check C vs. A and C vs. D
