Talk:Weighted positional method

"It follows that the only Condorcet-compliant sequential runoff method based on a weighted positional method is Baldwin"

Nanson's method doesn't count? — Psephomancy (talk) 15:28, 18 February 2020 (UTC)

By "sequential" I mean that it eliminates one candidate at a time. Nanson eliminates every candidate with a below-average Borda score, and so may take more than one at once. Kristomun (talk) 15:53, 18 February 2020 (UTC)

 The Borda count is the only weighted positional method that never ranks the Condorcet winner last.

Since Nanson and Baldwin pass Smith, can we rephrase this as "never ranks every member of the Smith set last"? BetterVotingAdvocacy (talk) 07:20, 27 February 2020 (UTC)
