Have any estimates been done with a relatively large number of tests to get
some rough idea of percentage distributions for 2 or more choices in REAL
public elections ?
Namely, what is the rough winning percentage with 2 choices ?
Circa 55-58 percent ???
What happens with the first choice percentages with 3 or more choices ?
Circa 41, 35, 24 ???
With 4 or more ?
The real numbers are, of course, skewed versus random numbers.
Technically, the skewed numbers should not affect which method is being used
but reality may say otherwise.
