Gotcha, how does this compare to true preferential voting?

    Australia's system is IRV (for the federal government / lower house). Schulze is significantly better.

    IRV has the tendency to eliminate moderate candidates in the first round (only first preferences count in the first round) which is often where Condorcet candidates lie.

    IRV doesn't enforce two parties like FPTP but it still promotes polarisation.
