Cardinal voting is a lot more expressive than ordinal. For example, with 3 candidates, the following 3 cardinal votes
A:35% B:33% C:32%
A:99% B: 1% C:0%
A:51% B:49% C:0%
all reduce to the same ranking but express rather different relative preferences. Btw, in this example scores are normalized to add up to 100%, but should still be considered independent of other candidates.
