election_title: "BV2264 — Participation (1 of 2): the council six voters elect"

scenario_description: |-
  The CONTROL half of a participation pair. Six voters fill a two-seat board by
  Bloc STAR — the 0-5 STAR ballot counted once per seat: elect a winner, remove
  them, re-run the same count on who is left.

    - Seat 1: scores Ada 21, Dov 18, Bruno 13, Cleo 11. Ada and Dov advance;
      Ada wins the automatic runoff 2-0, with four of the six voters expressing
      no preference between them.
    - Seat 2: Ada is removed and the same ballots are re-counted. Dov 18,
      Bruno 13, Cleo 11; Bruno beats Dov in the runoff 3-2.

  Council: Ada and Bruno. No rung of the tie-break ladder is consulted.

  Pair with BV2265 (th3pbp), which is these six ballots plus one honest seventh
  voter — and that voter ends up with a council their own ballot rates LOWER.

  Reproduced on BetterVoting (election j3hqvb): BV elects Ada then Bruno,
