Because the [[Negative vote-counting approach for pairwise counting]] can involve some voters giving 1 vote to both candidates in a matchup, it can be worth thinking of the support a candidate has in a matchup as an [[approval rating]] i.e. both candidates might have majority-"approval".
 
When doing negative pairwise counting, it's possible to count 1st choices separately from other ranks, with voters who rank multiple candidates 1st potentially being counted separately too. See [[Pairwise counting#Uses for first choice information]].
