I met someone from Germany today that mentioned that Germany's electoral method (to elect its national legislature) is nonmonotonic because of some interplay between two electoral methods it uses. (at least that's what I understood, this conversation was in a noisy bar/restaurant).
Can anyone explain that to me? Apparently the courts or people in Germany have decided to remedy (eliminate) the nonmonotonicity before the next major election. -- Kathy Dopp http://electionmathematics.org Town of Colonie, NY 12304 "One of the best ways to keep any conversation civil is to support the discussion with true facts."
