Mr. Cretney wrote in part-
Theory doesn't necessarily mean debatable. My point was that we've
expanded the issue under discussion. The old theory only considered
preference orders and methods based on them. We need a new theory to
talk about what's going on in people's heads, and how that is reflected
in sincere ballot

D- Yet another different posting. I must be living in the New Age of
Politics (NAP).
What next-- lie detectors for each voter to detect those naughty/ evil
insincere votes ???
Even first choice votes (plus any later choice votes, of course) may be
*insincere* if 1 or more of the choices is rotten in the mind of the voter.
