Line 80:
One way to explain [[normalization]] for scored ballots is that a voter attempts to put the maximal margin between every pair of candidates, while still preserving their relative strength of preference between each pair of candidates. Specifically, this means that you try to give your favorite the maximal margin (1 vote i.e. [max score - min score] points) against your least favorite.
When designing a digital interface for the rated pairwise ballot, it's possible to use various software features to highlight the constraints on how a voter can vote. For example, if the voter submits an incorrect A>C preference, then their A>B and B>C preferences could be highlighted on the screen, with an indicator to show why the three preferences don't line up. Similarly, if the voter indicates a maximal margin for A>B and prefers B>=C, then the software can "fill out" the voter's ballot to put a maximal margin in favor of A in every matchup where the voter prefers B to the other candidate (For clarity purposes, the software should probably indicate, perhaps with colors or something, which matchups the voter filled out and which ones were auto-filled).
