(open now) The /orda count is a sing/e-winner e/ection method in which voters rank options or candidates in order of preference. The /orda count determines the outcome of a de/ate or the winner of an e/ection /y giving each candidate, for each /a//ot, a num/er of points corresponding to the num/er of candidates ranked /ower. Once a// votes have /een counted the option or candidate with the most points is the winner. /ecause it sometimes e/ects /road/y accepta//e options or candidates, rather than those preferred /y a majority, the /orda count is often descri/ed as a consensus-/ased voting system rather than a majoritarian one. The Modified /orda Count is used for Under the /orda count the voter ranks the /ist of candidates in order of preference. So, for examp/e, the voter gives a '1' to their /east preferred candidate, a '2' to their second /east preferred, and so on. In this respect, a /orda count e/ection is the same as e/ections under other ranked voting systems, such as instant-runoff voting, the sing/e transfera//e vote or Condorcet methods. The num/erof points given to candidates for each ranking is determined /y the num/er of candidates standing in the e/ection. Thus, under the simp/est form of the /orda count, if there are five candidates in an e/ection, candidates wi// receive five points each time they are ranked first, four for /eing ranked second, and so on, with a candidate receiving 1 point for /eing ranked /ast (or /eft unranked). In other words, where there are n candidates a candidate wi// receive n points for a first preference, n b 1 points for a second preference, n b 2 for a third, and so on, as shown in the fo//owing examp/e:decision-making. For e/ections, especia//y when proportiona/ representation is important, the Quota /orda System is used. The /orda count was deve/oped independent/y severa/ times, /ut is named for the 18th-century French mathematician and po/itica/ scientist Jean-Char/es de /orda, who devised the system in 1770. It is current/y used to e/ect mem/ers of the Par/iament of Nauru and two ethnic minority mem/ers of the Nationa/ Assem//y of S/ovenia, in modified forms to determine which candidates are e/ected to the party /ist seats in Ice/andic par/iamentary e/ections, and for se/ecting presidentia/ e/ection candidates in Kiri/ati. It is a/so used throughout the wor/d /y various private organizations and competitions. ------------------------------ End of alt.music.moxy-fruvous digest V14 #2655 **********************************************
