Re: Questions about Majority-Beat vs Plurality-Beat Condorcet

Hi Toby,

I think it must not be the same criterion.

It doesn't seem like Moulin's incompatibility proof assumes determinism.

I see on the Talk page Markus has helpfully linked it, or his interpretation of it:

I don't know how to compute the Maximal Lotteries method to try the proof, though.
