Discussion on how to use Approval and Condorcet for legislative votes, including the ideas of "approval threshold" (how many people need to support an action being taken for it to happen; by default, it's a majority) and "concession threshold" (if an idea has a certain significant amount of support, you can indicate that you will switch from opposing to supporting it): https://www.reddit.com/r/EndFPTP/comments/futa9q/comment/fmmfulq?context=1

One way to think about how large the difference in required markings can be between pairwise counting and IRV is to consider an election scenario with a candidate who is a majority's 1st choice, where voters rank every candidate. In both Condorcet and RCV, the majority's 1st choice will win, but in RCV, only the 1st choices of each voter need be counted, resulting in one mark per ballot, while with pairwise counting, supposing there are 10 candidates, at a minimum 25 marks will need to be made per ballot (see [[Negative vote-counting approach for pairwise counting#Semi-negative counting procedure]]). However, pairwise counting will give more detailed information as to how much support each candidate has overall.
