        For simulations and small elections in particular, it's in my opinion important to understand the corner cases that can arise in Bottom-Two Runoff, and decide how the outcome should be determined. One reason to think this way is to make sure that the tallying algorithm is deterministic. A deterministic algorithm will make all experiments repeatable, that are based on applying the algorithm to a given set of example data.

        I posted an algorithm or two in here, but it or they were wrong.

                I have advanced the code from where it was crashing every time to where it gives wrong answers, so that's progress.
