                |  | virus: multidimensional voting «  on: 2003-10-18 12:47:49 »
 |   |  Approval voting has been proven to be an excellent election system.  It offers a heightened degree of consensus, it is nonmonotonic.  It is simple and yet it frequently elects Condorcet and Pareto candidates.
 
 My proposal is a tristate modified Approval Vote that is not merely a modified Borda count.
 
 Given a group of choices you may select "approve/disapprove/i don't know" for each one.  This is equivalent to having a tristate checkbox.  On, off or grey.  It is also equivalent to allowing abstention for each of an array of choices...
 
 
 Dimension A - Decision
 Yes is 1
 No is 0
 I don't know is 0
 
 Dimension B - Awareness
 Yes is 1
 No is 1
 I don't know is 0
 
 The winner must satisfy conditions of victory in both dimensions.
