Kemeny is precinct summable, all it needs is the pairwise matrix.

Dodgson also is precinct summable:
for each (candidate, rank) 2-tuple, you keep track of the count.

Re my/Simmons' "Kemeny done right" based on ratings-style ballots,
I think it is highly debatable whether this
is really a good analogue to Kemeny.   I think it's a bad analogue.

The analogy is much better for Dodgson than for Kemeny.
