The Math of Voting

# The Math of Voting ### How we can elect leaders that better represent our interests

## Chapter 3: The Ghost of Elections Yet to Come I wonder who this new ghost is...

So what's the problem with plurality voting?

It's best we look at an example.

But wait, we're missing something here!

Move all three sliders into the correct positions.

Sylas Shaper: {{borda.sylas}} points

Nina Number-Smith: {{borda.nina}} points

Iswar Beekumar: {{borda.iswar}} points

Correct! Iswar Beekumar is now the winner, depite getting so few first choice votes. What a difference it makes to look at the bigger picture!

The sliders are not in the correct positions yet! Keep working.

Why stop at ranking?

So many options! Where do we go from here?

Well, I guess that's the last of my visitors. And they've given me a lot to digest! It's up to us now to figure out how the election can best be conducted.
