Since Nanson and Baldwin pass Smith, can we rephrase this as "never ranks every member of the Smith set last"? [[User:BetterVotingAdvocacy|BetterVotingAdvocacy]] ([[User talk:BetterVotingAdvocacy|talk]]) 07:20, 27 February 2020 (UTC)
 
: No, because those aren't weighted positional methods. They are elimination methods with weighted positional methods as the base. Same difference as IRV (or Carey) vs FPTP.
 
: As for the second implied question, any method that never ranks the CW last may be used along with elimination to pass Smith, even if they may rank Smith set members last. This because once all but one Smith set member is eliminated, the remaining one is the CW by definition. [[User:Kristomun|Kristomun]] ([[User talk:Kristomun|talk]]) 10:01, 27 February 2020 (UTC)
