Talk:Condorcet paradox: Difference between revisions

However, IRV would elect A if 3 supporters moved over to C (voter betrayal to succeedworks). Obviously, facing defeat, A has every reason to try, but supporters of A may not. Rather than do that calculated 3 vote move to make a tie, supporters of A should only need to change 3 of their votes to A>C. No betrayal.

It's a paradox. It wasn't before, but it is now. And based on these votes, C deservesnow has a right to be in theit conversationto win it. AThis shouldn'tis evenmore bea lookingvote forto help C, than it is a tie.vote Allto help A. needsBesides, isthere oneare more voteguaranteed ways for A to win. GetJust wrestle 1 vote away from B>A toand becomemake it A>B, or turn 1 vote fromby C>B to becomeinto C>A>B. Candidates need to prove they are better than the rest. That’s what voters want to see in an election. I think if you findend up with a paradox, acceptdon't make it asinto something it's not. Call it a tie and break it in the fairest possible way.
