Line 31:
 
 
Use a simple [[Vote-for-2|Vote-for-2]] nonpartisan primary to qualify fourthree orto five, with a Favorite / Approval general election. (Vote-for-2 is a compromise of Favorite and Approval.)
 
 
The [[Majority Criterion|Majority Criterion]] could be used to bypass the approval evaluation, and award the win to any candidate who gets an "A" grade from over half of the voters. This will reduce the likelihood of a candidate being defeated by another who is preferred by fewer voters.
(No approval winner could ever beat a first-choice majority winner without using lower-rank votes cast by the majority voting bloc, which many would see as illogical or unfair.)
(Note that all majority winners are also Condorcet winners, unbeatable in head-to-head matchups.)
