[EM] Voting Benchmark

[Kevin Venzke]

As you say, "once their preference is (partially) included their voting strength should lessen." Like (multi-seat) STV.

 Hmm, how do you envision that? You start by selecting the strongest one and fill a list like that?
 How would you prevent people from reusing their voting budget in that case?

   Couldn't you just use a proportional method that elects sequentially? That sounds like the sort of thing you're after.

 Thanks for all the suggestions. I'll briefly describe my method to make 
 my goal clear:
 
 I want to avoid aggregating all votes in a tally, because I think that 
 loses information. Specifically, I would like a method that can find a 
 representative ranking. I.e. if I want the top 10 songs, it should 
 reflect the preferences of everyone, but not only contain electronic 
 music because a majority likes that.
 When I you do the simple Schulze ranking (not STV) I find it 
 over-represents certain groups because they essentially can vote more 
 than once.
 I think once their preference is (partially) included their voting 
 strength should lessen, but with a tally their vote can not be removed 
 (reduced) since it's all agglomerated.
