@toby-pereira The scenario is around the 1:37:00 mark, ( which is a debating example in its own right ) but that was only the example that lead me down this thought process. Has anyone ran the numbers to find the first loser, second loser, ... to get the winner. With the assumption that I choice candidates Z, Y, X, W, V, B, A ( in that order I want to win ) ( assuming ranked choice ) and they all lose in the same order, would it make a mathematical difference it the ballots are calculated winner to loser or loser to winner. My thinking on it is that if it were counted loser to winner than my vote would count all the way up, but if counted winner to loser than it would not.
