What is a good name for the following voting system?

Voters rank the choices. Voters as a whole prefer candidate A over candidate B when there are more ballots on which A is ranked higher than B than the reverse. A candidate who is preferred over each other candidate is elected.

Only the single favorite choice will win the poll.
The poll ends Nov 12. The poll supervisor is Andrew Myers (andru@cs.cornell.edu). Contact the poll supervisor if you need help.

Give each of the following choices a rank, where a smaller-numbered rank means that you prefer that choice more. For example, give your top choice the rank 1. Give choices the same rank if you have no preference between them. You do not have to use all the possible ranks. All choices initially have the lowest possible rank.
