Each voter rank-orders all of the candidates on their ballot. If at any time one candidate is ranked first (among non-eliminated candidates) by an [[absolute majority]] of the voters, then this is the winner. As long as this is not the case, the candidate which is ranked last (again among non-eliminated candidates) by the most (or a [[plurality]] of) voters is eliminated. (Conversely, in [[Instant Runoff Voting]] the candidate ranked first (among non-eliminated candidates) by the least amount of voters is eliminated.)
