Well, so here we have a case to consider. B has more core supporters than A,

and A has more compromise supporters from C. Splitting votes compared to

full votes makes a difference.


Which result more accurately represents voter preference?

D- Clarification.

*IF* there is a majority of ALL of the voters, then the highest majority.

If there is NO majority (of ALL of the voters), then there should be NO 
winner (for executive and judicial elections and voting on conflicting 
issues).  The default should always be deemed to be *NO* (i.e. NOTA).

P.R. for legislative bodies is a separate problem (where minorities are 
expected to win seats).
