In discussion with Michael Ossipoff, I realized that there's a better way to state CMJš than just stating the algebraic tiebreaker formula. So here's the full definition of CMJ, using my new statement:<div><br></div>
<div>"Each voter grades each candidate from A to F. Voters may give as many or as few of each grade as they want. Then each candidate's grades are put in order and the similar grades are evenly spread out. For instance, grades of B (3.0) are evenly spread over a continuum between B+ (3.5) and B- (2.5). Then the middle (or median) grade for each candidate is their final score, and the best one wins."</div>
