[s-d] About ranked pairs...


I think some people are voting here as if this were IRV.

Recommend checking out http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ranked_pairs#Procedure,
particularly the following passage: "Voters may also express indifference
(e.g., A = B), and unstated candidates are assumed to be equally worse than
the stated candidates."

I'm assuming that the people voting for a single RP really mean: {A > B = C
= D} rather than: {A = B = C =D}....

Same goes for any ballot with unlisted RPs... Which, given Wooble's point
about old ones, is all of them.
