A number of ways have been suggested for making FBC more demanding. Here's what I meant by "strong FBC", when I said that ERBucklin(whole) meets Strong FBC:
Strong FBC:
A voter has a "favorite" if there's 1 candidate whom that voter prefers to every one of the other candidates. That candidate is hir favorite.
In a particular election, by voting another candidate equal to or over hir favorite, a voter shouldn't gain an outcome that s/he prefers to every outcome that s/he could get in that election without voting another candidate equal to or over hir favorite.
[end of strong FBC definition]
As I said, when I say "Bucklin", I mean ERBucklin(whole).
