Line 11: == Properties == If we suppose ranked ballots are being used, then in the general case VFA satisfies the [[Monotonicity criterion]], and what could be called the ''Majority ~~Last Preference~~Loser criterion'' (i.e., the last preference of a majority cannot win). It fails the [[Condorcet criterion]], the [[Mutual majority criterion\|Majority criterion for solid coalitions]], Clone Independence, and the [[Participation criterion]]. In the three-candidate case, VFA does satisfy the [[Mutual majority criterion\|Majority criterion for solid coalitions]], and in one respect also Clone Independence: When the winner in a two-candidate race is ''cloned'', this cannot cause the loser of the two-candidate race to be elected.
