Are Condorcet and minimax voting systems the best?
arXiv:1807.01366
Abstract
For decades the minimax voting system was well known to experts on voting systems but was not widely considered to be one of the best systems. But in recent years two important experts, Nicolaus Tideman and Andrew Myers, have both recognized minimax as one of the best systems. I agree with that. This paper presents my own reasons for preferring minimax. The paper explicitly discusses about 20 systems.
