Another way to look at Approval in terms of one vote per voter:
Suppose there are N candidates. Count each approval as exactly one Nth of
a point. That way no man can vote a total of more than one point. (And
he's a fool to vote a full N/N .)
You can vote less than one point if you want, same as in single mark
plurality.

D- Au contraire. An approval vote is yes (1) or no (0) on each choice --
especially for executive and judicial office elections.
As usual, I must note again for newer EM folks, that approval is defective
because it claims equal yes (1) votes for 2 or more choices when, of course,
no such thing actually exists in real public elections.
