The negative counting approach is an alternative method of doing [[pairwise counting]]. It is faster (i.e. requires less marks and tallying), depending on implementation, when voters rank multiple candidates last. Rather than counting a voter's preference for a candidate they ranked (i.e. over lower-ranked candidates), it counts that voter's '''lack''' of preference for that candidate (i.e. over the candidate themselves and higher-ranked candidates).
