* "Maximum approval top-two" or "MATT" is an approval-based primary where voters use an [[W:approval voting|approval voting]] ballot to select which candidates would be acceptable to advance to the general election. The maximum approval top-two method then selects no more than two candidates to advance to a general election. |
