Thanks, I'd missed that change. Perhaps people here could help on the taxonomy question:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Voting_system#classification_scheme_- _take_2
For example, I can think of at least three orthogonal ways to categorize systems:
â What the result is (e.g., single-winner, multiple-winner, proportional)
â How balloting is done (e..g., single vote, cardinal rating, ranking)
â How it is counted (e.g., pairwise, runoff, etc.)
What do you all think the best way -- or perhaps the most useful ways -- to categorize different voting systems?
