If someone could simulate using random functions, it would be nice to know the probability of a tie for winner given certain factors:

# of candidates

# of voters

single-winner voting method (plurality, approval, score) (maybe add IRV if you're feeling extra adventurous)

My election simulator tracks the number of ties.

I am currently in the process of both simplifying the model and rewriting the program in Swift.
