Ranked Preference Approval Voting (RPAV) is a general term used to describe voting methods with approval inferred from a ranked ballot (equal ranking and ranking-gaps allowed), but is used specifically for two different single-winner methods and one multiwinner [[proportional representation]] method.
=== Single Winner Ballot format ===
The goal of RPAV single-winner is to emulate a general ranking with an explicit approval cutoff
To de-emphasize *rating*, even though it could be considered equivalent to a score ballot, the RPAV ballot is set up as N ranked

Line 44 ⟶ 45:
* Sort the candidates in descending order of approval, and take the top three approved candidates. (A = approval winner, B = approval runner-up, C = approval third place)
* Use rankings to form a pairwise matrix for those three candidates.
** If a ballot
* The T3 winner is the pairwise winner of the highest approved candidate ("A") versus the pairwise winner between the second ("B") and third ("C") most approved candidates wins the election. In other words, T3-winner = PW(A, PW(B,C)).
* If the T3 winner is not the Approval winner ("A"), find the pairwise winner between A and the pairwise loser of B vs C in order to determine the T3 runner-up and third-place.

Line 56 ⟶ 58:
** Find candidate(s) with the smallest number of pairwise losses, add them to Smith Set
** For each untested Smith Set candidate, add in any candidates not already in Smith Set who defeat that candidate.
** Repeat until no untested Smith set candidates remain.
* Winner is the highest approved member of the Smith set. For three candidates, the winner of RPAV-T3 is the same as the winner of RPAV-Smith-Approval.
