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 weak are the most treacherous of us all. They come to the strong and drain them. They are bottomless. They are insatiable. They are always parched and always bitter. They are everyone’s concern and like vampires they suck our life’s blood.”
—Bette Davis (1908–1989)
