Line 21:
Regular IRV eliminates B and elects A here, whereas Benham elects B for being the Condorcet winner ([[Pairwise beat|pairwise beats]] A and C 66 to 34 each). This is an example of an averted [[Center squeeze effect|center squeeze]] instance.
Because Benham's method is just IRV with the possibility of ending in an earlier round, it is possible to figure out who the Benham winner would be if given the full results of an IRV election (the round-by-round breakdown) and a pairwise comparison table.
It was invented by Chris Benham.
