Say we run Random Pair n times for a given election. Furthermore, say
that the set of candidates that win most often is called GP_n (greatest
probability in n tries), and say that GP is equal to GP_n as n
approaches infinity.
What deterministic election method would always elect GP?
Presumably, when some candidate X is the CW, GP consists of X alone. But
does GP consist of the Smith set when in a cycle? I doubt it, but I'm
not sure. This is equivalent to a question of whether Random Pair passes
a (probabilistic) version of Smith.
