Though thoroughly convinced of the soundness of his single transferable vote method of electing representatives and ready to defend it in the cabinet or the parliament, he made no effort to bring it to the attention of scientific men and statesmen in other countries, much less to defend his claim as an inventor. The Single Transferable Vote, or STV, is a preference voting system designed to minimise wasted votes in multi-candidate elections while ensuring that votes are explicitly for candidates rather than party lists. ...

Instant-runoff voting was invented around 1870 by American architect William Robert Ware.
He evidently based IRV on the single-winner outcome of the Single Transferable Vote, orginally developed by CarlAndrae and Thomas Hare.
Today IRV is used in Australia for elections to the Federal House of Representatives, and for the Legislative Assemblies (lower houses) of all states and territories except Tasmania and the Australian Capital Territory, which use STV.
