Sequentially Spent Score: Difference between revisions

Line 6:
Each voter starts with a ballot weight equal to the MAX possible score.
# Elect the candidate who is the [[Utilitarian winner]] (ie the candidate with the highest sum of score)
# WeakenLower the weight of the ballots that had supported that candidate in proportion to how strongly they supported that candidate. ie (new weight) = (weight) - (score given to winner) (with surplus handling; see below)
# For ballots that lost weight in the previous step, adjust the amount of supportscore they give to the remaining candidates by '''capping''' it at the reduced ballot weight. ie (new score) = min(score,weight)
# Repeat these steps until all the necessary seats are filled.
 
Line 22:
==== 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.
