        @jack-waugh Are Jack Waugh and William Waugh the same person? It's something I've often wondered.

          Yes. Sorry about any confusion. For a while, I was trying to use the William name for electoral politics, and the Jack name for continuing a career in coding up software. In the present project, the two interests met.

              @keith-edmonds It appears to be three-level Score, not just Approval.

              Approval-ordered Llull (letter grades) [10], Score // Llull [9], Score, STAR, Approval, other rated Condorcet [8]; equal-ranked Condorcet [4]; strictly-ranked Condorcet [3]; everything else [0].

                @jack-waugh This appears to be the Venetian system

                I would make the same suggestion. Add this example to the score voting page.

                A common tactic of the rank voting supporters is to say that cardinal system are not used anywhere.

                  Not sure about the specific implementation, but at least mathematically it's also equivalent to combined approval voting (i.e. -1, 0, 1).
