1-Candidate-Mutuality (1CM):





If a majority prefer x to y, then they should have a way of voting that will ensure that

y won't win, without any of them voting a less-liked candidate equal to or over their


favorite.





[end of 1CM definition]





Majority-Top, Approval (MTA):





Voters mark candidates "top" or "middle", or no mark.





If a candidate is marked "top" by a majority of all the voters, s/he wins.





Otherwise, the winner is the candidate marked "top" or "middle" by the most voters.





If more than one candidate is marked "top" by a majority of the voters, then the winner is


whichever of those is marked "top" or "middle" by the most voters.





[end of MTA definition]





Approval meets FBC and WDSC.





MTA, MDDA and Bucklin meet FBC, 1CM and 3P.





Bucklin also meets SDSC and UP.





MDDA also meets SFC.
