Mr. Davidson seems not to be able to understand that there can be bare
majorities and higher majorities.
Example-- using Approval Voting (in which a voter can vote for one or more
choices without number voting for the choices)- 100 voters
A 45
B 51
C 60
D 49
E 30
F 56
B gets a bare majority (51), C gets the highest majority (60).
As I have noted a few times, approval voting is defective in not
distinguishing between the choices that get majorities (since such majorities
are based on a combination of 1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc. votes-- if number votes were
being used).
