Description | Content |
Article description: (description ) This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | Voting methods can be categorized based on how many candidates they allow you to support, and to what degree. The common Choose-one FPTP voting method (and the related Category:FPTP-based voting methods) only allows a voter to maximally support (up to) one candidate, and if they do this, they can't support any other candidates. Also, note that many voting methods allow supporting multiple candidates, but all of the support must add up to some amount. For example, Cumulative voting allows giving less than maximal support to multiple candidates, but all of the support must add up to maximally supporting one candidate i.e. you can give 50% of the maximal support to two candidates each, but not 60% each. |
