Another "Oops!". I've just realized that I posted my most recent message to the wrong<BR>
thread. So now I'm posting it to the right thread:<BR>
.<BR>
Oops! I forgot that B voters ranked C. <BR>.<BR>Yes, C wins, even though C has a very low Plurality score. <BR>.<BR>But PC isn't intended to be Plurality. In fact, none of us want Plurality, <BR>so why should we use it for the standard for evaluating propoed <BR>replacemens for it? Plurality is not what we want.<BR>.<BR>We don't say, "Don't vote for candidate X, because he isn't enough like<BR>the incumbant"<BR>.<BR>After all, if agreement with Plurality us which results are better than others, then<BR>wouldn't that imply that we should keep Plurality instead of replacing it?<BR>.<BR>We propose methods that meet criteria that are important to us, methods<BR>that do important things that we prefer. For me, that means getting<BR>rid of Plurality's lesser-of-2-evils problem as well as possible. PC and<BR>MMPO do so excellently.<BR> <BR>Mike <BR><BR> </div></body>
