And from the Approval side, you have PAV. That method is also pretty 
easy to describe: Each voter gets one point for having one of his 
approved candidates elected, one plus a half for two, one plus a half 
plus a third for three and so on. Pick the assembly that produces the 
greatest total number of points.

(I would suggest a sequence of 1, 1/3, 1/5 and so on, but that's 
nonstandard.)
