Of the single-winner ranked voting systems, [[Borda count|Borda]], [[Schulze method|Schulze]], [[rankedRanked pairsPairs]], maximize[[Maximize affirmedAffirmed majoritiesMajorities]], [[Descending Solid Coalitions]], and [[Descending Acquiescing Coalitions]]<ref name="Woodall-Monotonicity" /> are monotone, while [[Coombs' method]], [[runoff voting]], and [[instant-runoff voting]] (IRV) are not.
