MTAOC conditionality doesn't need the change that I suggested in a post a few minutes ago.<br><br>I'd believed that there'd be a problem if (in the ABE) the number of A voters + B voters<br>was odd. But that isn't so. If middle(x,y) is even one greater than middle(y,x), then saying<br>par(x,y) = "no" is consistent with the method's intent.<br><br>So I'm leaving MTAOC conditionality as it was, and retracting the "fix" that I posted<br>a few minutes ago.<br><br>By the way, someone objected to conditionality by mutuality, but any FBC/ABE method<br>that elects C in the Approval bad-example is effectively doing the same as that. That<br>includes the FBC/ABE proposal posted by the poster who objected to conditionality by mutuality.<br><br>Mike Ossipoff<br><br> </div></body>
