I made a few typos in my replies to Venzke, but hopefully the reader can mentally corrct them. The conclusion Venzke completely fialed in his attacks on my proofs, remains in force.
Also in my reply to Rob Brown, I think I should not have said his 'fix" converted range (effectively, with strategic voters) into vote-for-and-against. I think I instead should have said "plurality voting OR antiplurality voting" anyway, system where you put all your eggs in one basket to be for 1 guy or against that one guy. Anyway, Rob Brown's "fix" makes it way worse, that is clear, destroying FBC, clone-immunity, simplicty, additivity, voting-machine compatibility, ability of voters to intentionally downweight themselves, approval special case, etc etc all in one fell swoop. wds ---- election-methods mailing list - see http://electorama.com/em for list info
