4 The Plurality-with-Elimination Method Definition (The Plurality-with-Elimination Method) By the plurality-with-elimination method (also called instant-runoff voting, or IRV), The voters cast their votes for their first-place choice. If one candidate has a majority of votes, he wins. Otherwise, the candidate with the fewest first-place votes is eliminated and the process repeats with the remaining candidates until there is a winner. Robb T. Koether (Hampden-Sydney College) The Plurality-with-Elimination Method Mon, Feb 5, / 18

14 Faster Elimination Rather than eliminate the candidates one per round, we could eliminate Two per round (or three, or four, etc.) All but two in the first round. Robb T. Koether (Hampden-Sydney College) The Plurality-with-Elimination Method Mon, Feb 5, / 18
