Abstract
Summary The Colley and Massey methods are two well-known methods to rate sports teams. We prove that when the Colley method is applied to election data, then it returns the same outcome as the Borda count, a well-known election procedure. Hence, the Colley method is an extension of the Borda count to partial orderings of candidates. A similar relationship holds between the Massey method and range voting. Real data from Major League Baseball is used.
