I waould like to advertise Delegable Yes No (DYN) voting again.  It overcomes the main difficulty with Approval, which is that the common voter will will not feel sure about approving or disapproving some of the candidates.  
Under DYN you check Y next to all of the candidates that you are sure that you want to approve (like your favorite), you check N next to all of the candidates that you are sure that you disapprove (like the candidate you most detest), you leave blank the choices for the candidates you are not sure about, and you circle the name of the approved candidate that you want to delegate the remaining Y/N decisions to.
After the sure Y/N votes are counted, the candidates make their proxy votes for their supporters on the delegated choices.  The partial talleys already available to them help to counteract disinformation from the media.
This is one way to solve the problem

26 A>B

Where the 25 threaten to bullet B.
