Poll description

Five people from the list below will become the members of the Community Committee (CC). Assign weights to each person according to how much you want them to be in the committee (higher weight = higher preference).

The system will assume you want to maximise the sum of weights of selected candidates. E.g. if X is given a weight of 10 and Y and Z have weights 8 and 6 respectively, then the voting algorithm will assume you prefer a committee with both Y and Z over one with X, because 14 > 10. However, giving Y and Z weight of 4 and 2 instead would have expressed that X is preferred to a combination of Y and Z, because 6 < 10.

Preference matrix

There are 252 possible sets of 5 choices that can be formed by selecting from the 10 choices. Of these, 6 sets were considered thoroughly, comparing against the 34 nearby (similar) sets that differ in just one choice.

This is the voting preference matrix, reporting maximal valid proportional preferences. Fractional digits indicate nonproportional preferences, which help break ties in proportional preference.
