Subject: Re: Participation Criteria and Bucklin - perhaps they *can* work
together after all?

 

So to make a ranked example:

 

49: XpqYrstuabcdef

49: XutYsrpqfedcba

50: abcYXdefpqrstu

50: fedYXcbautsrpq

 

OK, Y wins this one.

 

Add 4 votes:

4: aXYbcdefpqrstu

 

And now X wins this one.  

 

BUT I'm am still confused, Participation Criterion says: "Adding one or more
ballots that vote X over Y should never change the winner from X to Y"  In
this case the winner was NOT changed from X to Y, but from Y to X, so this
is NOT an example of failing the Participation Criteria, is it?

 

Am I missing something here?
