Majority Judgment
Considering, that a unrated candidate is assumed to receiving the worst possible rating, this example shows that Majority Judgment violates the later-no-harm criterion. Assume two candidates A and B with 3 potential voters and the following ratings:
| Candidates/ # of voters |
A | B |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Excellent | Good |
| 1 | Poor | Excellent |
| 1 | Fair | Poor |
