Forest, Jobst, Chris:

As earlier shown by Jobst, Pairwise (bubble) Sorted Approval finds the
same social ordering as Ranked Pairs, Beatpath or River, when defeat
strength is determined by the total approval of the winning pairwise
candidate.

Is it possible to find a similar equivalence for Approval Sorted
Margins?  In other words, is ASM equivalent to Ranked Pairs (and/or
Beatpath and/or River) when defeat strength is measured by the margin
of approval?
