Line 209:
The following terms are often used when discussing pairwise counting:
'''Pairwise win/beat''' and '''pairwise lose''': When one candidate receives more votes in a pairwise matchup/comparison against another candidate, they "pairwise beat" that candidate, with the other candidate in the matchup pairwise losing.
'''Pairwise winner''' and '''pairwise loser''': the candidate who pairwise wins is the pairwise winner of the matchup, with the other candidate being the pairwise loser of the matchup.
'''Pairwise tie''': When two candidates receive the same number of votes in their pairwise matchup.
