Voter has 100 points to distribute among the candidates.
# The
# The points of the eliminated candidate are proportionally redistributed in each vote (normalization).
By repeating processes 1 and 2, a worst candidate is eliminate each time.
The remaining candidates are the best (winners).
===Paper ballot===
In the paper ballot it's better (instead of the [[Cumulative voting]] with 100 points) to use the ranges, that are easier to understand for a voter. Ballots using ranges will be normalized to 100-point votes, and then apply the Distributed Voting count. Some examples of conversion:
10,6,3,1 → 50,30,15,5 (note: there isn't 0 in the lowest score)
==Procedure specification==
Line 85 ⟶ 96:
* When the worst is eliminated, the candidates with the lowest score among those left in the vote must be set to 0, and then normalizes.
* [[Surplus Handling]] (in the standard Distributed Voting it's not used, also in [[Multi-Member System|multi-winner]]).
* If the remaining candidates are contained in a [[Smith set]], then the candidates with the highest sum wins.
* Negative points can also be awarded
==Other properties==
Line 174 ⟶ 185:
* Ex.3: in an image contest, there is a cash prize to be awarded to the 3 best images. The prize will be divided appropriately according to the % of victory and not in a pre-established way before the contest.
▲ Original → Normalized in 100 points
▲ X,0,0,0,0 → 100,0,0,0,0
▲ X,X,X,X,0 → 25,25,25,25,0
▲ 101,0,0,0,0 → 100,0,0,0,0
