Line 1:
'''Range voting''', or '''average voting''', or '''cardinal ratings''' is a [[voting system]] used for single or multiple-seat [[election]]selections. It is also used on the web - for rating movies ([[Internet Movie Database]]), comments ([[Kuro5hin]]), and many other things.
 
== Voting ==
Line 6:
candidate's election to them in the form of a number. In "pure" range
voting, each voter may give any candidate any [[real number]], but as the
potential for [[tactical voting]] is huge, most systems use someupper and lower bounds. For example, each voter might give a real number between -1
bounds. For example, each voter might give a real number between -1
and 1, or an [[integer]] between 1 and 10.
 
Line 76 ⟶ 75:
 
Range voting assumes that voters are actually expressing their personal feelings rather than doing everything they can to cause their most favored outcomes.
