Weak Participation
Adding a new ballot shouldn't cause the defeat of the candidate whom that ballot votes over all of the other candidates.
Comments:
Causing that candidate's defeat is much worse than merely causing a lower choice to lose to a still lower choice. Weak-Participation is more important than Participation.
Instant-Runoff meets Weak-Participation. Majority-Judgment and Condorcet fail Weak-Participation.

Famous quotes containing the word weak:
“The human face is a weak guarantee; yet it deserves some consideration. And if I had to whip the wicked, I would do so more severely to those who belied and betrayed the promises that nature had implanted on their brows; I would punish malice more harshly when it was hidden under a kindly appearance.”
—Michel de Montaigne (15331592)
