After thinking more about this proposition, I think the Approval formula (see http://ElectionMethods.org/Approval-formula.htm) applies to Condorcet voting also. The Approval formula simply says to approve any candidate that is above the expected value of the entire election. The same reasoning applies to Condorcet voting. The difference is that, in Condorcet, the voter ranks the approved candidates, and the unapproved candidates are not ranked at all.
I comment:
That shows what happens when someone uses formulas about whose meaning he hasn't a clue.
This from a guy who didn't realize that basing an Approval vote on the previous election implies voting by party.
Is your little world falling apart, Mike? You poor thing. Why don't you seek professional help? I'm sure the government has some free program for losers like you.
