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.
