Forest,
the IRV- Condorcet you
describe here is a simpler solution, as long as you allow equal rankings, and
count them as whole (as
opposed to fractional):
I am strongly opposed to allowing equal ranking (except for truncation) in IRV
or IRV-like Condorcet
methods. As I've explained
Forest: I think your system (Bubble IRV, in the sense of bubble sort?)
would have some good properties in terms of results. But honestly, I don't
really see the point. We have a number of systems which give good results.
To me, the point of designing new systems is to give good results while
I just realized I didn't give my IRV3/AV3 variant system a name. I think
I'll call it 3-2-1 voting, because it is a pretty natural way (in my mind
at least) to eliminate down in that fashion.
