Survey: Plurality-With-Elimination Method of Voting

Plurality-with-elimination method of voting is "the MAJORITY of 1st place votes". This means the winner must have more than 1/2 of the 1st place votes. If a candidate does not have a majority of 1st place votes, then the candidate with the least number of 1st place votes gets eliminated, and the rest of the candidates "move up". Now recount the 1st place votes. Keep repeating this process until a candidate eventually has the majority of first place votes.

you, my guy, are the actual GOAT. saved my life for stats class

[@leemander]

Tried to learn this through a course given instruction video---made zero sense and left out steps. Watched your video ONCE and I completely understand it so THANK YOU

[@RichardMongero-ro6hd]

this was great, your tutorial got me a 90 on my quiz on the Borda method. My professor is Bulgarian and I cannot understand a word he says so I had no idea how to do it. I watched your videos and totally got it. gonna do the same now with pairwise and plurality with elimination. Thanks!!

[@kzin01]

Thanks a ton. Excellent presentation.

Thank You so much!

So what happens when you have no one with the least amount of first-place votes, lets say for instance A has 3 first place votes and b and c both have 2 first-place votes.

If there is a tie between 2 candidiates what should i do?

[@ketc2467]

Do I have to repeat the process until I get the majority first place?

[@ahmethikmet8213]

thank you bro

[@jessamaejanoyan8440]

what if two out of four choices do not get any 1st place votes? are both automatically eliminated?

[@poysermath]

Yes, any candidates that did not receive any 1st choice votes are the first candidates to be eliminated. This does not change the 1st choice row, but they MUST be eliminated.

[@jessamaejanoyan8440]

@@poysermath thank you. 🙂

[@alyssapitter4898]

thank you sooo much

[@Keshly16]

I'm assuming everybody in the comment section isn't majoring in anything related to math.

[@kaydencet.52]

What if there are two candidates that both have a small amount of numbers but do not tie for example C: 3 & D:2 do both get eliminated?

[@joonnaavvoonn7759]

no

[@gimimini7724]

what if there is a tie between the candidates who have least votes

[@poysermath]

Then eliminate both candidates that tie.
