Line 1:
'''Approval Methods''' are [[voting methods]] that require each voter to separate alternatives in a given election into two complimentary sets, the "A set" and the "-A set".<ref name="A set">An "A set" consists of the alternatives that have the trait that is requested in the election. For example, in approval voting, voters are asked which alternatives they approve. Thus, the A set contains approved alternatives. In disapproval voting, voters are asked which alternatives they disapproved, thus the A set contains disapproved alternatives.</ref> Whichever alternative occurs the most (or least) in A sets of voters wins the election.
