Hi folks,

As some of you may recall, I've been pondering a viable replacement to
California's jungle primary, and I think I've worked it out.  Full
writeup is on my blog:
<https://blog.robla.net/2018/11/20/replacing-the-jungle-primary/>

In the long writeup, I propose two new acronyms to describe two
different approaches:
1. Majority approval filter (MAF):
<https://electowiki.org/wiki/MAF>

2. Maximum approval top-two (MATT):
<https://electowiki.org/wiki/MATT>

As of right now, the blog post is much better.  The electowiki pages
are pretty raw.  But, I'm hoping that will change soon (maybe with
your help!)

p.s. I think I'm ready to declare the new electowiki.org to be the
official version of the wiki, since it's in a lot better shape..
There's a few things I need to wrap up on the old wiki to make the
migration complete, though.
