Hello.
This is my first posting in this list.
I have a question that may sound quite
strange, but I would be gratefull if I
received an answer :
Has anybody considered the
possibility of homophony to be treated as
a preferential voting method? Would
you suggest this could make sense in some cases?
After all, the voter's strategy may vary
when she uses a preferential method - so she
may not put as a first choice the choice
she would choose if she had to specify one solution.
I guess this could have impact to the
results of a vote that required homophony.
In addition, if homophony was seen as
preferential method, one could see as valid
result of homophony the case that all voters
produced the same preferences' list.
I would be grateful if I received any comments
on these thoughts...
Thanks in advance,
