(The term ''doubly-augmented'' refers to Woodall's notion of the ''doubly-augmented gross score'' of one candidate against another. This score, for ''X'' against ''Y'', is defined as the number of voters ranking ''X'' above ''Y'', plus the full number of voters abstaining from this pairwise contest. Then the CDTT can be defined as the union of all minimal nonempty sets such that no candidate in each set has a doubly-augmented gross score of less than half the number of votes, against any candidate outside the set.)
