Ranked Robin: Difference between revisions

When legally defined as ''always'' reducing to a finalist set first and then electing the finalist with the greatest total difference (Total Advantage) among finalists (as described in the '''1^st Degree''' tiebreaker), Ranked Robin always elects a majority preferred winner, arguably including in cases of '''2^nd Degree''' ties. This legal definition does not change the outcomes of Ranked Robin. Many municipalities in the [[United States]] are subject to majority clauses in their state's election codes, often requiring those jurisdictions to run two or more elections for a certain races. Ranked Robin can satisfy many of those majority clauses in a single election, allowing municipalities to eliminate an election if so desired, helping to offset the costs of implementing Ranked Robin, typically entirely within one election cycle.
