=== Dealing with write-in candidates ===
The difficulty of handling [[Write-in candidate|write-in candidat]]<nowiki/>es depends on how a voter's preference between ranked and unranked candidates is counted.
# If the voter is treated as preferring ranked candidates over unranked candidates (which is the near-universal approach), then write-ins can be difficult to count using pairwise counting, because the vote-counters don't know who they are and thus can't directly record voter preferences in matchups between on-ballot mainstream candidates and write-in candidates.
