Suggestion,
The statement needs to be understandable to folks who do not have
familiarity with how these alternatives work.
For instance, *I* do not understand the description for majority
judgment where it says:
* Majority Judgment uses score ballots to collect the fullest
preference information, then elects the candidate who gets the best
score from half or more of the voters (the greatest median score). If
there is a tie for first place, the method repeatedly removes one
median score from each tied candidate until the tie is broken.
----
Thus, I don't even know if I support this method. How is "one median
score from each tied candidate" to be removed selected. This sentence
seems inconsistent with the first sentence IMO. i.e. it seems possible
that there are two different definitions of median score being used.
I do not understand how this method works from its description.
Regards,
Kathy
