Jameson,
Sorry to be so tardy in replying.
That is not a bad suggestion; I like both systems. Yours gives less of a
motivation for
honest rating: In most cases, it makes A100 B99 C0 equivalent to A100 B51 C0.
No, mine gives more motivation for honest rating (in the sense that it gives
less
Jameson,
This Condorcet-Range hybrid you suggest seems to me to inherit a couple of
the problems with Range Voting.
It fails the Minimal Defense criterion.
49: A100, B0, C0
24: B100, A0, C0
27: C100, B80, A0
More than half the voters vote A not above equal-bottom and below B, and yet

Fair enough.

I believe that using Range ballots, renormalized on the Smith set as a
Condorcet tiebreaker, is a very good system by many criteria. I'm of course

I have a hard time reconciling Note that this could elect a Condorcet
loser and It fulfills Condorcet (by definition) .
If the first is true, the second cannot be, by, uhhh, definition.
No. If there is a Condorcet winner, it elects that person;
I left out one good aspect of this system. It is additive - ie, it can be
counted locally. You need to keep n(n-1)(n-1)/2 tallies - the Condorcet
matrix, plus the result of each candidate renormalized against every other
pair of candidates. If there were ever more than 3 candidates in the Smith
