Répondre: Re: [Mmwg] Important : procedure for runoff election

[Mohamed Tijani BEN JEMAA]

Jacqueline, Bertrand and all,

First of all, if there is a consensus on Wolfgang, it is very well for
me. It would at least permit to close this point definitely.

Now, if we need to vote again, I will agree with Jacqueline’s proposition 
for the following reasons :
1.	In all “democratic” elections, the second round doesn’t require a
strong majority.
2.	I have never heard about an election where people vote for 2
candidates to choose one.
3.	In case some of us vote for only one, the result will not reflect the
choice of the majority. It will be as if some vote twice, and the others
only once.
4.	In Bertrand’s proposition, there are 2 cases where the calculation
will not mach.
5.	With Jacqueline’s proposition, we will have a majority, even if it is
a very simple one. I think that it’s better then any other kind of combination.

What ever the consensus will be, I will stick to it, especially because I 
don’t think that it will have a major impact on the work of the group,
and also because I don’t want my friend Bertrand to be “sad”…

Best
