Ranked Majority Defeat Disqualification[edit]

Looks sensible, but also looks original. Few Google hits - anyone any comments? DJ Clayworth 18:28, 22 Jun 2004 (UTC)

  • Delete - unless support can be found that proves it is real. - Tεxτurε 21:35, 22 Jun 2004 (UTC)
  • Abstain, as I'm reluctant to delete something that seems quite formalized. However if it can be proven to be accurate or inaccurate, I will vote for/against it. —siroxo 01:51, Jun 23, 2004 (UTC)
  • Appears to be a real proposal, possibly invented by one Mike Ossipoff (name at bottom of original version; see also [1]). User:Tomruen might be able to shed some light on this (I believe he subscribes the to same mailing list as Ossipoff). However, since it hasn't yet attracted any attention, it falls into the original research category. So delete. Wile E. Heresiarch 07:08, 23 Jun 2004 (UTC)
  • I suggest that this page should be deleted. In my opinion, RMDD isn't even an election method because RMDD isn't defined for every possible profile. Actually, the only reason why RMDD meets SSSD is that RMDD isn't defined when for each candidate Y there is a candidate X such that a majority of all the voters prefers candidate X to candidate Y.
