Source: Dan S. Felsenthal (2010), Appendix A7, Example 19 — see bv2165_9vxcj7_star.yaml for the setup. The same 15 voters under Choose-One: first choices Amy 4, Boone 4, Cass 7 → Cass (a plurality, not a majority). Plurality picks Cass with or without the two Cass>Boone>Amy voters (BV2166) — the no-show drama belongs to the elimination and runoff stages of Coombs and STAR, not to the first-choice count.
