The Pirate Party of Sweden used Schulze (Cloneproof SSD, Beatpath, etc), 
which is a Condorcet method, for its primaries. While that is not an 
ideal application of the Schulze method, it is nevertheless a political 
precedent; while the method has not been used in a political election, 
it has thus been used for internal purposes within a political party.
