Hi,
It seems to me there might be a use for something like the method that
was proposed awhile ago that had to do with offering voters incentives
to give sincere ratings. For example, the majority would give the
sincere score to their compromise in exchange for their vote having
greater effect in reducing the win odds of their least favorite candidate.
If they rate their compromise too high, the loss of win odds from
favorite to compromise outweighs the value of the corresponding lessened
odds of the worst candidate. And vice versa for rating the compromise
too low.
I never really understood how this method worked, however.
