[members-discuss] Voting for RIPE NCC Charging Scheme 2024

Hi Gert,

The scenario you present is incomplete as you did not include second/third
preference votes, however I will do my best to explain.

No options have a majority, even though option A has a plurality, so option
B (the least popular) would be eliminated.
Let's assume those voting for options B, C, and D do not want option A so
their second preference votes would be allocated to C and D.
30% on A
33% on C
37% on D

Once again none has a majority so we eliminate option A, let's assume these
are allocated equally.
48% on C
52% on D

Then option D wins.

I hope this helps.
