Comparison of instant runoff voting to other voting systems

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )


 * Delete Superfluous. The sole purpose of this fork is to give a pretext for a POV version of the instant-runoff voting article. There is no "comparison of plurality voting to other voting systems" article and no "comparison of top-two runoff voting to other voting systems" article, although these voting systems are more wide spread than instant-runoff voting. There is no "comparison of proportional representation to single-winner districts" article, although such an article would be more interesting.

 * Delete Ideally there should be an article Voting systems that explains the differences between all the different systems, and tells why some are preferred over others.  It should also do it in a way that is easy for the readers to follow. Also the unusual formating of this article makes it hard for editors to add to it.
