Talk:Single non-transferable vote

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

--Red Deathy 10:45, 2005 May 9 (UTC)Let's say there are 60 voters and 2 seats to fill. To guarantee a win, a candidate must get one more than (1/(2+1)) = 1/3 of the votes. 1/3 of 60 = 20. Three candidates can theoretically get 20 votes, so a candidate has to get 21 votes to guarantee a win.

[edit] Relation to limited voting

Just wondering, does anyone out there have any strong feelings about moving this section to a slightly broader discussion of limited voting?

I've seen SNTV described as 'strictly limited vote' and the implications/considerations don't really change uch between single limited voting and mulitiple limited voting, save perhaps the proportionality bit. There is already a Limited Voting section, but that doesn't do much, and it's a bit pointless with this page here.--Red Deathy 10:45, 2005 May 9 (UTC)
