[Election-Methods] about IRV & median voting (answers to Dopp, Roullon)

[Warren Smith]

1. Dopp wanted simple nonmonotone IRV elections examples.
See
http://rangevoting.org/Monotone.html

and here is another:

#voters	 Their Vote
8	 B>A>C
5	 C>B>A
4	 A>C>B
If two of the B>A>C voters change their vote to A>B>C, that causes
their true-favorite B to win under IRV.
(If they vote honestly ranking B top as is, then their most-hated
candidate, C, wins.)


2. Roullin advocated "median voting".  That is discussed here:

http://rangevoting.org/MedianVrange.html

median has a lot of disadvantages versus averaging, but few
advantages - which in my view are
not enough.

3. Bolson's page on IRV
http://bolson.org/voting/irv/
I agree with it, he has independently reached the same views
as mine
