Two examples of small vote failures--

1. Approval- 3 Voters
                          A        B
1st Choice         2         1
2nd Choice         0         2

Total                 2          3
B wins using approval 3-2. A wins head to head 2-1.

2. Instant Run-Off- 5 Voters
A 2
B 2
C 1
C v. A: 3-2
C v. B: 3-2
C loses in IRO, C wins in head to head.

3. Any more ideas for small (smallest) vote examples for other defective
methods?
