<p class="MsoNormal"><span
style="font-size:16.0pt;font-family:"Arial Rounded MT
Bold"">As
John Stuart Mill said, in Representative Government, majority
rule is not
democracy but maiorocracy. Maiorocracy is minimal democracy. It
is single
majority rule, of over half the votes. It’s logical extension,
in the Droop
quota, is multi-majority rule. Proportional representation is
the generalisation
of single majority rule.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span
style="font-size:16.0pt;font-family:"Arial Rounded MT
Bold"">That
is, if as much attention is paid to the representation part of
PR. That
requires a preference vote, of personal order of choice, or
ranked choice.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span
style="font-size:16.0pt;font-family:"Arial Rounded MT
Bold"">To
talk about Hare ranked choice vote or Hare IRV is inaccurate and
misleading.
The Hare system is immutably the proportional count of an
ordinal vote, in
large constituencies.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span
style="font-size:16.0pt;font-family:"Arial Rounded MT
Bold"">The
HG Wells formula, which followed Hare and Mill, is proportional
representation
with the single transferable vote in a large constituencies.</span></p>

style="font-size:16.0pt;font-family:"Arial Rounded MT
