This approach can be considered an [[Approval voting]]-based or [[cardinal]] approach, because when using the Approval-style approach for equal-rankings (explicit equal-rankings are counted as a vote for both candidates in the matchup), then each voter that votes Approval-style (i.e. explicitly ranks some candidates 1st and leaves all other unranked, which is implicitly treated as ranking them last) will have their ballot counted like an [[Approval ballot]] (i.e. the preference for each approved candidate on the ballot will be counted with one mark per candidate, and no marks will be used to count disapproved candidates). Further, in some implementations, it allows a voter to give support to both candidates in a matchup, just like in cardinal methods. |
