I am talking about Rob's example
(http://groups.yahoo.com/group/election-methods-list/message/8046):
45:A>B>C
22:B>C>A
33:C>B>A
The IFPP winner is A. However, if 5 BCA voters hadn't voted, then this
example would have looked as follows:
45:A>B>C
17:B>C>A
33:C>B>A
Now the IFPP winner is C. Thus, by going to the polls these 5 BCA voters
changed the winner from candidate C to candidate A.
