ABucklin2:

Same as ABucklin, except that:

When any Bucklin vote-giving round results in 2 or more candidates having votes 
from a majority of
the voters, then:

1. Delete from the ballots every candidate who doesn't have votes from a 
majority of the voters.
2. Delete every ballot that has given a vote to a candidate who has votes from 
a majority of the voters.
3. Procede as usual in Abucklin.

As in ABucklin:

1. The ABucklin delay, when a ballot has several candidates at a rank position, 
is desirable, because it confers 
MMC compliance.

2. Conditionality, implemented as in AOC or GMAT or MMT, could be desirable 
because it confers 
defection-resistance.

3. The immediately-abovementioned two features #1 and #2 almost surely make the 
method handcount-infeasible.
