I don't have any particular opinion, as long as the method is Condorcet <br>
and doesn't fail too many criteria. I think it's likely that the <br>
cloneproof defeat-droppers will all give the same result. There might <br>
even be a CW, which would solve the problem outright.<br>
<br>
I proposed Ext-Minmax more to reduce the chance of ties, since Schulze <br>
has a higher tie rate than other methods and RP breaks ties in a <br>
somewhat opaque manner. But again: the EM posts are public so anyone can <br>
run whatever voting method they'd like on the ranked ballots and report <br>
their results. If ties end up being a real problem, we can deal with it <br>
later.<br>
<br>
I'm not an Approvalist myself, but having an Approval ballot be part of <br>
the poll doesn't bother me either. In any case, I don't think it's <br>
necessary to complicate matters by having a vote about what voting <br>
method to use, or by inventing a meta-voting method.<br>
<br>
In short, let's keep it simple!<br>
