The Schulze method is a voting system used to determine the winner in elections with multiple candidates. It focuses on pairwise comparisons, where each candidate is compared against every other candidate to see which one is preferred by voters. The method identifies the strongest candidate by analyzing these preferences and determining which candidate can win against all others in head-to-head matchups. In the Schulze method, voters rank candidates in order of preference. The results are then processed to find the "Schulze winner," the candidate who has the strongest support overall. This method is known for its ability to reflect the voters' true preferences and minimize the impact of tactical voting.
