[Election-Methods] PR-STV elimination change

[raphfrk at netscape.net]

 I was thinking of this as a better method of determining which candidate to eliminate. 
It has probably been suggested before.

It is basically just repeating a PR-STV election for each round, 
where each round elects N-1 candidates from the N remaining candidates.

This eliminates one candidate.? Each round would just consist of surplus transferring and would likely 
require a few counts.

A candidate who is the 2nd choice of many voters would pick up a large number of transfers which
would help protect from elimination.
