Markus, here is a joke i've heard recently:
Q: What do you call a person who knows two languages?
A: Bilingual.
Q: What do you call a person who knows three languages?
A: Trilingual.
Q: What do you call a person who knows four languages?
A: Quadralingual.
Q: What do you call a person who knows a single language?
A: American.
that said, i can't figure out from the website who wins according to
the Schulze algorithm.
and, if you know, could you tell us who would win if it was decided by
Ranked Pairs?
and, lastly, do we know who would win if it were single-winner STV
(commonly called IRV in the states)?
just curious.
thanx.

The Smith set consists of 7 candidates (magalski,
baum, mayer, delius, weiss, höfinghoff, wittich).
The Schwartz set consists of 3 candidates
(magalski, baum, mayer).
The Schulze method satisfies both criteria, the
Smith criterion and the Schwartz criterion.
Therefore, the Schulze method guarantees that
all Smith winners are ranked ahead of all other
candidates and that all Schwartz winners are
ranked ahead of all other candidates.
