[Donald Stufft <donald at stufft.io <mailto:donald at stufft.io>>] ... I’m struggling to find a resource besides that doesn’t also include shilling for another voting system or isn’t a lengthy paper but https://rangevoting.org/IRVpartic.html gives an example and https://rangevoting.org/TarrIrv.html is a more complex example.

The rangevoting site has a great deal of info about all sorts of voting systems.  Over a decade ago, Ka-Ping Yee (who used to be very active in Python development) ran some visual voting simulations on 5 popular systems, which scared him (& me) away from IRV forever: http://zesty.ca/voting/sim/

Thanks! This is a great resource. I agree that IRV looks scary, while Approval or Condorcet look reasonable IMHO.

Antoine.
