== Types of strategic nomination == #'''[[Vote-splitting]]''' happens when adding similar or clone candidates decreases the chance of any of them winning, also known as a [[spoiler effect]]. Methods that are vulnerable to this include the [[plurality voting system]] and two-round [[Two-round system|runoff voting]]. #'''Teaming''' happens when adding more candidates actually helps the chances of any of them winning, as can occur in [[Borda count]]s. #'''Crowding''' happens when adding candidates affects the outcome of an election without either helping or harming the chances of their factional group, but instead affecting another group. This can occur in [[Copeland's method]].
