Suppose 9 people run for election, and no one of them gets 50% of the vote. If you give office to the one with the most votes, you are giving it to someone whom the majority did not want. Perhaps the majority would prefer a different, compromise candidate instead of the one who won.
I thought about a run-off system: if no one candidate receives 50% or more of the vote, the bottom candidate is eliminated. Then those who voted for #9 vote again for one of the remaining 8, and so on, until a single candidate has the majority vote. But this is also not perfectly fair: perhaps, when candidate #3 is eliminated, a majority of voters would prefer candidate #9 to candidates #1 and #2, but they no longer have the ability to vote for him.

So for the question: suppose you have a list wherein all the voters have ranked the candidates in order of preference.
1) How would you determine the winner of the vote?
2)Why is this the ideal method?

Thanks in advance

I know this African American man that was real disabled and cannot drive and during the Clintons great "I feel your pain" years he could not help him and Sen. Lott did get him help after they jerked him around, he was from Laurel, so why has lott got to resign, i mean Mississippi hasn't got much, just ranked over Louisiana, New Hampshire and New Mexico, Mississippi needs him.

Just wondering the difference between being layed off and being fired. I know someone who was layed off and now they are already filling the position. On top of that, another person put their two weeks in from that same place and they are now looking for a replacement for that person. These are all the same positions and the person who was layed off was so not because they were a bad employee or even really financial reasons but for a culmination of reasons- and was asked to come back after - well after their baby was born. My question is can this place hire a new person to fill either of the positions without first asking the person who was layed off? This person was layed off almost a month ago now--- am I wrong or if the company has to fill positions within a year don't they have to offer the position back to anyone who has been layed off? Or not? What is the difference here between being fired and layed off? Also- if it matters, this is in Nebraska.

There is this kid at my college and these days I have seen him holding up a political sign about the war in the middle east (Israeli's). Just yesterday I saw him with a bruised face. Why is he still holding up the sign!!! He has enemies. I wanted to shake him up and tell him to wake up. Who's going to listen to him??? He should just come up with a website and express his thoughts. Should I talk to him and offer him my perspective. It really hurt me to see that a person can not see the danger they are putting themselves in. Should I forget about it and move on? It's o.k?
