Prefer Accept Reject voting: Difference between revisions

# '''Voters can Prefer, Accept, or Reject each candidate.''' Default is "Reject" for voters who do not explicitly reject any candidates, and "Accept" otherwise.

# '''Candidates with at least 25% Prefer, and no more than 50% reject, are "viable"'''. The most-preferred viable candidate (if any) is the leader.

 

Note that the procedure above will always elect a viable candidate if any exist. It will usually, but not always, elect the leader. Each candidate's score at the end can be seen as an approval total.
