Line 6: === Election Methods === There has been an increasing awareness in many parts of the world of the effect that different [[~~:Category:~~Voting ~~methods~~system\|election methods]] (voting systems, voting methods, etc; this site uses these words interchangeably) have on the quality and timbre of elections and democracy. There are movements for [[proportional representation]], [[Approval voting]], [[Score voting]], [[instant-runoff voting]], and [[Condorcet method\|Condorcet methods]]. This site gives you a guide to what these things are. But it also goes one step further: There is a vast literature on the [[:Category:Voting theory\|theory]] behind these systems: What [[:Category:Voting system criteria\|criteria]] can you use to judge whether a particular method works well? What [[tactical voting\|strategies]] will different systems encourage voters to use? We record the collective wisdom of scholars and enthusiasts, and, by working together, hope to create a canonical reference for all to use.
