Mackerras Pendulum



The Mackerras Pendulum was invented by the Australian psephologist Malcolm Mackerras as a way of predicting the outcome of an election contested between two major parties in a Westminster style lower house legislature such as the Australian House of Representatives, which is comprised of single-member electorates and which uses a preferential voting system such as a Condorcet method or IRV.
