election_title: "Two chapters, one delegate — Both chapters together (9 members)"

scenario_description: |-
  Part of the districting-cost trio. Two chapters of one club elect a single
  national delegate. Ana is adored in Northside and unknown in Southside; Beto
  is the mirror image; Cleo is everybody's solid second. Counted chapter by
  chapter, Cleo wins NEITHER — so a delegate chosen from the chapter winners is
  Ana or Beto. Counted as one electorate, Cleo wins outright, and she is also
  the highest-welfare candidate (33 points to Ana's 23 and Beto's 19) and the
  Condorcet winner. That gap is the distortion of distributed voting, made
  countable. Companion concept page:

  — ONE election carries all three counts as three races. The chapter races
  hold all nine papers, with the other chapter's members leaving the contest
  blank; a blank scores 0, so every total matches this file exactly.
