Condorcet elections have been used for public elections. The city of Marquette, Michigan, U.S.A. once used (and may still use, for all I know) a Condorcet voting system known as Nanson's Method for the election of all city officials.

Condorcet elections are properly classified by Hoag and Hallett as majority preferential voting and not as proportional representation.
