Here's an example of a Condorcet-like PR method: In the first round put the Ranked Pairs winner C1 into the winners' circle.
In the second round compute a modified pairwise matrix by giving weight 1/2 to each pairwise preference in which C1 is preferred above both of the candidates in the pairwise comparison. Then augment the winners' circle by the Ranked Pairs winner computed from the modified pairwise matrix. In each subsequent round for each ballot re-compute the pairwise matrix for the remaining candidates by giving a weight of one over one more than the number of candidates in the winners' circle that are ranked above both of the candidates being compared. Etc. Forest ---- For more information about this list (subscribe, unsubscribe, FAQ, etc), please see http://www.eskimo.com/~robla/em
