Jean-Charles de Borda (1733–1799) was a French mathematician, physicist, and naval officer known for his contributions to various fields, including mathematics, engineering, and political science. He is best known for his work in voting theory, particularly for the Borda count, a ranked voting system that he developed. The Borda count allows voters to rank candidates in order of preference, with points awarded based on the position in which each candidate is ranked.
