Article description: (description)
This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | User:Kristomun, I think this may have some kind of STV-PR generalization. In a 2-seat election, we know that anyone who has over 1/4th of the active votes at any point in STV is guaranteed to be one of the final 3 remaining candidates, since it's impossible for 3 other candidates to each have more votes than this candidate (since they'd each have to have over 1/4th of the active votes, resulting in more than 100% of votes total being allocated to different candidates), which is what would enable them to survive elimination longer. So, we can say that when over 1/3rds of the voters prefer someone from the "dominant mutual quarter" set (DMT but for 1/4th of the electorate) over anyone else who survives until the final round, then the dominant mutual quarter candidate must win. In general, someone who is preferred by a solid coalition of 1/(k+2)th of the voters (k being the number of seats) and preferred by 1/(k+1)th of all voters over any other given rival must win. I'm not sure if there's a way to extract more from this insight, though. BetterVotingAdvocacy (talk) 03:48, 27 March 2020 (UTC) |
