Line 5:
* Favorite plus [[Range voting]]. Single Favorite as above, plus a score of 0 to 99 can be given to any number of other candidates. Same fallback as above, except total range score is used instead of approval.
 
Once a [[Ratings ballot]] begins to be used, the scores could be tabulated and reported with 5 different methods for comparison: Top Favorite, [[Range voting]], [[Schulze]], [[Definite Majority Choice]], or [[Cardinal pairwise]] using [[River]]. To do this, it would be necessary to infer candidate rankings from the sorted ratings.
 
With familiarity, it would be possible to transition to a more robust voting system. In the case of no candidate winning a majority of the Favorite votes, we could select from one of the other four robust methods at random to introduce unpredictability. Since all four methods have similar sincere voting strategies but different strategies in the case of cycles, it would give an incentive to vote by preference instead of trying to game the system.
