If a voter casts only one preference, he gives his favourite just 1 point. |
If another casts two preferences, she gives her favourite 2 points, and her 2nd choice 1 point. |
If yet another casts three preferences, he gives his favourite 3 points, his 2nd choice 2 and his 3rd choice 1 point. |
So best of all. |
She who casts all five preferences gives her favourite 5 points, her 2nd choice 4, and so on. |
