Source: Dan S. Felsenthal (2010), Appendix A7, Example 17 — see bv2164_xbqq8t_star.yaml for the setup. The same 33 voters under Choose-One: first choices Arlo 11, Bree 14, Cole 4, Dana 4 → Bree (a plurality, not a majority). Choose-One happens to agree with Coombs' paper result here — both miss the Condorcet winner Arlo, whom STAR and Ranked Robin elect.
