From a voter's standpoint, the simplest ballot would use [[Range voting]]. Then the candidates' total score, as a measure of approval, would be used to resolve cycles.
▲== Procedure 2, [[Range voting]] ==
# Voters cast [[ratings ballot]]s, rating as many candidates as they like. Equal rating and ranking of candidates is allowed. Separate ranking of equally-rated candidates is provided. Write-in candidates are allowed. Unrated candidates are allowed.
# Ordinal (rank) information is inferred from the candidate rating plus additional ranking. For example, candidates might be rated from 0 to 99, with 99 most favored
# Each ballot's ordinal ranking is tabulated into a pairwise array containing results for each head-to-head contest (see [[Definite_Majority_Choice#Tallying_Votes|example]] below). The total rating for each candidate is also tabulated.
# The winner is the candidate who, when compared with every other (un-dropped) candidate, is preferred over the other candidate.
# If no undefeated candidates exist, the candidate with lowest total rating is dropped, and we return to step 4.
Quick example: A:99
