Regarding Kevin's puzzling statement:
", and if you did know that you qualify for it, you'd also know that you don't need to use it, since your candidate should win no matter what you do with your lower rankings. " I'd like to add that SFC is about not needing to use anything, not needing to do anything other than sincerely vote all of one's pairwise preferences. So if Kevin says "You don't need to 'use' it", meaning to use any strategy, then I agree. Mike Ossipoff ---- election-methods mailing list - see http://electorama.com/em for list info
