This procedure will generate a cycle when the Nakamura number is exceeded.
This procedure will generate a cycle when the Nakamura number is exceeded. Schulze developed acloneproof method of doing this based on the Schwartz method. A maximum likelihood method of doing thisis named for Kemeny and Young. Michael Dummett added a quota element to another procedure for doingthis called the (*) Borda count. Duncan Black showed that in a one-dimensional system, this procedure will selectthe median. The spoiler effect can potentially foil some systems for this practice. This practice cannot satisfy thecriteria of independence of irrelevant alternatives, universality, Pareto efficiency, and non-dictatorship according toArrow's Impossibility Theorem. For 10 points, name this procedure used in democracies to select leaders.
