Peleg (Elections)

Peleg’s election rule is a method for selecting a candidate based on voters' ranked preferences. Each voter orders candidates from most to least preferred. The process considers the collective preferences to find a candidate who can win under certain fair criteria, often ensuring that the chosen candidate has broad support and stability. It aims to fairly reflect voters' intensity of preferences while avoiding common voting issues like strategic voting or cyclical choices. In essence, Peleg's method seeks a consensus candidate that best represents the preferences of the entire electorate in a fair and balanced way.
