No. I don't think it is a good idea to use it. All I was doing was putting Borda in a hierarchy structure that showed how "similar" one method was to another. What I basically implied in the post was that Borda is as "close" as you can get to Cardinal Ratings without actually being Cardinal Ratings. > How has "proportional" being interpreted here? I suppose this question in a way sums up what my post was saying/asking. For each method, how is proportional being interpreted?
