Voting -- Methodology Citizens for Approval Voting 
 Website for an organization that promotes approval voting. "Approval Voting is exactly like the plurality system that is generally used in America today except for one twist: Instead of voting for any single candidate, Approval Voting allows you the option of voting for any number of candidates for a given office. The candidate who collects the most votes wins." Includes a discussion of the potential benefits of this voting system. http://approvalvoting.org Topics: Politics Last updated Apr 26, 2006 FairVote: IRV America
