Dopp: And this theorem while it may sound believable at first glance is
instead of course obvious mathematical nonsense and easily rebutted
with any one of a countable infinite number of counterexamples.

How fascinating that Kathy Dopp has refuted over a century of research
into PR voting
systems. But rather than keeping her infinite number of obvious
counterexamples secret,
how about exhibiting one? I mean, I'll settle for just one.
