The '''Single Transferable Vote''', or '''STV''', is a [[
When promoted as a [[proportional representation]] method in multi-party multi-seat elections, it is generally known as '''Proportional Representation through the Single Transferable Vote''' or '''PR-STV'''. When a similar method is applied to single-seat elections it is sometimes called ''[[instant-runoff voting]]'' or the ''alternative vote'', and has different proportionality implications for a similar ballot.
Line 156:
* [[BTR-STV]]: Eliminate the pairwise loser of the bottom two candidates (meets [[Condorcet criterion]] in single-winner elections).
* [[Benham's method|Benham]]: If the candidate with the fewest top-choice votes beats every other remaining candidate pairwise, eliminate the candidate with the next fewest top-choice votes. Meets the [[Condorcet criterion]] in single-winner elections.
* [[STV-CLE]]: Eliminate the loser of a [[Condorcet ranking]].
