Specifically, in the second step, the score given to the winner is divided by (the total score given to that winner) * (Total number of Winners)/ (Total number of voters). This is a number greater than 1 and hence reduces the amount spent on that winner. |

=== Scaling === |
|||
A variant of this method can be made by scaling instead of capping to adjust ballot support for candidates after the ballot's weight has been adjusted. Capping is when, if a ballot's weight has been reduced by a certain amount, a ballot that gives a candidate more support than its weight allows is edited to give that candidate only as much support as its ballot weight. In other words, if a ballot is at 70% weight (70% power), yet it gives a candidate 80% support (a score of 8 out of 10, for example), it is adjusted to give that candidate 70% support instead. |

Scaling is when the amount of support a ballot gives a candidate is proportionally adjusted by how much weight it has remaining. In other words, a ballot with 50% weight that originally gave a candidate 70% support when it had full weight will now give that candidate 35% support. |

=== Quota of Ballot Selection === |
|||
In the first step one need not choose the [[Utilitarian winner]]. A reasonable alternative is to take the winner as the candidate who has the highest sum of score in the Hare (or Droop ) [[Quota]] of Ballots that most support them. This is the selection method from [[Sequential Monroe]] |

=== Dynamic Quota === |

[[Sequentially Shrinking Quota]] is a modification to limit [[Free riding]] |
