Further, we can use the results of our simulations to illustrate candidate concordance.

The concordance of election results based on the ballot Shannon entropy is shown in Figure 1. Notice that, in this example, the voters who ranked Montroll first had a variety of second choice candidates. For example, consider the algorithm for Instant-Runoff Voting shown in Table 2, and the series of ballots shown in Table 3. Instant Runoff Voting (IRV), also called Plurality with Elimination, is a modification of the plurality method that attempts to address the issue of insincere voting. G has the fewest first-choice votes, and so is eliminated first. = 24. The IRV algorithm, on the other hand, attempts to address these concerns by incorporating more information on voter preferences and cross-correlations in support among candidates. By the sixth and final round, the winner beat Santos by about 200 votes and had 51 percent to Santos' 49 percent of the remaining vote.

Round 1: We make our first elimination.

McCarthy gets 92 + 44 = 136; Bunney gets 119 + 14 = 133. Compared to traditional runoff elections, IRV saves tax dollars, reduces money in politics and elects winners when turnout is highest. \hline 4^{\text {th }} \text { choice } & \mathrm{E} & \mathrm{E} & \mathrm{E} & \mathrm{B} & \mathrm{D} & \mathrm{C} \\ \hline 2^{\text {nd }} \text { choice } & \mathrm{M} & \mathrm{B} & & \mathrm{G} & \mathrm{B} & \mathrm{M} & \\ No one yet has a majority, so we proceed to elimination rounds. Concordance rose from a 57% likelihood in bins where ballots had the highest levels of Shannon entropy to a 100% likelihood of concordance in the boundary case. The reasons for this are unclear and warrant further study. After transferring votes, we find that Carter will win this election with 51 votes to Adams 49 votes! We are down to two possibilities with McCarthy at 136 and Bunney at 133. Prior to beginning the simulation, we identify all possible unique voter preference profiles. If any candidate has a majority (more than 50%) of the first preference votes, that candidate is declared the winner of the election. Majority is a noun that in general means "the greater part or number; the number larger than half the total.". Instant Runoff Voting (IRV), also called Plurality with Elimination, is a modification of the plurality method that attempts to address the issue of insincere voting. We find that the probability that the algorithms produce concordant results in a three-candidate election approaches 100 percent as the ballot dispersion decreases. With primaries, the idea is that there is so much publicity that voters in later primaries, and then in the general election, will have learned the candidates weaknesses and be better informed before voting. If a majority of voters only prefer one first-choice candidate and strongly oppose the other candidates, then the candidate that most voters prefer will be elected through Plurality voting. On the other hand, the temptation has been removed for Dons supporters to vote for Key; they now know their vote will be transferred to Key, not simply discarded. Now B has 9 first-choice votes, C has 4 votes, and D has 7 votes. \hline 2^{\text {nd }} \text { choice } & \mathrm{C} & \mathrm{D} & \mathrm{D} & \mathrm{C} & \mathrm{C} & \mathrm{B} \\ There have been relatively few studies that use numerical simulations to test the behavior of election algorithms under different conditions. B, Glass 2, As is used in paragraph 2, which is the best antonym for honed? Round 2: K: 34+15=49. This is similar to the idea of holding runoff elections, but since every voters order of preference is recorded on the ballot, the runoff can be computed without requiring a second costly election. Available: www.doi.org/10.1002/j.1538-7305.1948.tb00917.x. A version of IRV is used by the International Olympic Committee to select host nations. If any candidate has a majority (more than 50%) of the first preference votes, that candidate is declared the winner of the election. plurality elections or instant runoff voting grade 10 1170l We calculate two values for each of these statistics. In the following video, we provide the example from above where we find that the IRV method violates the Condorcet Criterion in an election for a city council seat. Plurality vs. Instant-Runoff Voting Algorithms. D has now gained a majority, and is declared the winner under IRV. Instant-runoff voting ( IRV) is a voting method used in single-seat elections with more than two candidates. \hline No one yet has a majority, so we proceed to elimination rounds. Round 3: We make our third elimination. \hline 2^{\text {nd }} \text { choice } & \text { D } & \text { B } \\ In this election, Carter would be eliminated in the first round, and Adams would be the winner with 66 votes to 34 for Brown. Here is an overview video that provides the definition of IRV, as well as an example of how to determine the winner of an election using IRV. In each election, we determine both the Plurality winner and the IRV winner using the algorithm (Table 2). \hline & 3 & 4 & 4 & 6 & 2 & 1 \\ \hline 5^{\text {th }} \text { choice } & \mathrm{E} & \mathrm{E} & \mathrm{E} & \mathrm{B} & \mathrm{D} & \mathrm{C} \\ \end{array}\). However, we can calculate the HHI and Shannon entropy of these first choices and show how their dispersion relates to the probability of concordant election outcomes, had they been the first round in an IRV election. Voting algorithms do not always elect the same candidate. In IRV, voting is done with preference ballots, and a preference schedule is generated. No one yet has a majority, so we proceed to elimination rounds. RCV usually takes the form of "instant runoff voting" (IRV). The last video shows the example from above where the monotonicity criterion is violated. It is distinguished from the majority system, in which, to win, a candidate must receive more votes than all other candidates combined. Since these election methods produce different winners, their concordance is 0. \hline 1^{\text {st }} \text { choice } & \mathrm{B} & \mathrm{C} & \mathrm{B} & \mathrm{D} & \mathrm{B} & \mathrm{D} \\ The maximum level of concentration that can be achieved without a guarantee of concordance is when two of the six possible ballots and/or candidates have exactly half of the vote. In IRV, voting is done with preference ballots, and a preference schedule is generated. 2. With a traditional runoff system, a first election has multiple candidates, and if no candidate receives a majority of the vote, a second or runoff election is held between the top two candidates of the first election. Campaign civility under preferential and plurality voting. C, Dulled In the most notable cases, such as elections for president or governor, there can only be a single winner. Instant runoff voting (IRV) does a decent job at mitigating the spoiler effect by getting past plurality's faliure listed . It will require education about how it works - We dont want spoilt ballots! This voting method is used in several political elections around the world, including election of members of the Australian House of Representatives, and was used for county positions in Pierce County, Washington until it was eliminated by voters in 2009. Consider the preference schedule below, in which a companys advertising team is voting on five different advertising slogans, called A, B, C, D, and E here for simplicity.
