election_title: "BV2277 — The mayor's race (Choose-One): Ada wins on 33%"
scenario_description: >-
  The Choose-One (Plurality) race of BV2277 (BetterVoting election tqfdbg) — the same
  100-voter mayor's race as the IRV, Ranked Robin and STAR races, with every voter
  marking only their first choice. Ada wins with 33 of 100, the largest pile and
  nowhere near a majority. She also LOSES head-to-head to two of the three people she
  just beat: Cora 67-33 and Blake 67-33. This is the baseline the other three races
  are measured against — and the reason a jurisdiction goes looking for a better count
  in the first place. Adam Kissel's "single-elimination RCV" is one such attempt; it
  improves on this (it elects Blake, who at least beats Ada head-to-head) but still
  misses Cora, the candidate who beats everyone.
