Again-  With 3 or more choices, there might not be any *sincere* votes after 
the first choice.

Any second or later choice vote may not be sincere (and will not rationally 
be done if it can hurt an earlier choice vote).

desired > compromise ( ??? sincere or insincere ???) > unacceptable.

N1 A > B
N2 B > A

Add C

New possible votes-

CAB
ACB
ABC

CBA
BCA
BAC

Which votes are now *sincere* (even second choice votes) ???

How would a new voter vote --- who came along and was not aware of the 
original A and B pairing ???
