A lot of sites say it was 'invented' by an 18th century French 
mathematician named Marquis
de Condorcet.  I have my doubts, since I thought of it just thinking about 
voting one night and didn't find the name until several months later, so 
there were probably a lot of people who 'invented' it before and after him, 
but he must have done something extra special to get his name attached to 
it.
