Donald writes: Well Steve - it seem to me that whenever we have more than
two candidates remaining we are bound to have one with the lowest number of
votes.

              For example: 40A  30B  20C 10D

I would say that candidate D is the lowest with ten percent.

Unless all the candidates are tied - equal amounts of votes each - then no
candidate is last or first.

Donald,
