For what it’s worth, this is the correct method of counting that should have been followed. By typical IRV rules, the vote should already be over with H prevailing. 

The fact that only two choices remained by the second round does illustrate the problem even with IRV followed correctly, in that with so many options and so few voters, the system doesn’t really work effectively. But I have much less of a problem with this outcome because it came as a result of the stated counting method. 

I still stand by my current latest, to quote Daniel, “dunce cap troll proposal”—who’s committing personal attacks now, hypocrite? After seeing these proposals in action lately I’m convinced all votes going forward should be exclusively yay/nay votes.
