Monotonicity criterion
text:
The positive response, monotonicity, or nonperversity criterion is a principle of social choice that says increasing a candidate's ranking or rating should not cause them to lose. Positive response rules out cases where a candidate loses an election as a result of receiving too much support from voters. Rules that violate positive response are said to show perverse response. Systems that violate positive response can create situations where a voter's ballot has a reversed effect on the election,
