This is a great article.  I don't entirely agree on the conclusion (Donald
Saari's work on Borda again comes out pretty favorably), but the fact that
the reporter also talked to Brams makes it a much more balanced article
than the piece in the Economist a few months back.  There's also some
really interesting discussion of using voting methods in character
recognition, plotting space probe trajectories, and other computer
applications.
