As I have had it explained to me, the Plurality Criterion is: "If there are two candidates X and Y so that X has more first place votes than Y has any place votes, then Y shouldn't win".
Which I think means that if X has, for example, 100 votes, then B would have to appear on less than 100 ballots and still *win* for this criterion to be failed, yes? I cannot imagine a (halfway desirable) voting system that would fail the Plurality Criterion - can anyone tell me the simplest one that would? Apart from a lame one like "least votes win", I mean? -Benn Grant eFix Computer Consulting <mailto:[email protected]> [email protected] 603.283.6601
