You can also now save Condorcet results in HTML format but still
working on the best graphics to visualize Condorcet results.
One solution is to support minmax(margins). With that method you can
simply draw a histogram that indicates how many new (first preference)
votes each candidate would need to win (or tie) with the winner /
current leader.
Here is the URL to a results page at VoteFair.org that shows another way
to graphically display pairwise-comparison results:
http://www.votefair.org/cgi-bin/votefairrank.cgi/votingid=41541-56251-09157
Note that the pairwise comparisons are sorted according to popularity.
The length of each bar indicates how many voters support that choice
compared to the other choice in the pair.
The "summary" section uses bar lengths that basically sum up the
pairwise counts. This means that the length of a bar for a
higher-ranked choice is not necessarily always longer than the length of
a bar for the next-lower-ranked choice (but such cases become rare as
the number of votes increases).
