[EM] Sincere voting definition: falsifying instead of contradicting a preference

[Michael Ossipoff]

Sorry, but I'd been away from EM for quite a while, and I made a small
mis-statement, when quoting my definition of sincere voting:

Instead of saying "contradict a preference", I should have said "falsify a
preference".

To falsify a preference is to vote X over Y without preferring X to Y.

[end of definition of falsifying a preference]

So let me write the definition of sincere voting, with that correction:

A voter votes sincerely if s/he votes without falsifying a preference of
hirs, or failing to vote a preference of hirs that the balloting system in
use would have allowed hir to vote in addition to the preferences that she
actually votes.

[end of definition of sincere voting]
