Unfortunately, that solution is not applicable to my situation. My example is a simplification of an issue I came across. The actual scenario deals with a much larger number of candidates so that a pairwise-results matrix would not be a picture readily digested by a human, and the Kemeny method would be impossible to compute. ---- Election-Methods mailing list - see http://electorama.com/em for list info
