VoteFair representation Ranking

  

First-most representative choice is:

Kelly Clarkson (season 1)

At this level the following choices are tied (as most-popular among the voters who did not rank the previous-most representative choice at the first preference level):
    Haley Reinhart (season 10)

    Carrie Underwood (season 4)


Additional representation rankings cannot be identified until this tie has been resolved, such as by introducing a tie-breaking vote.

VoteFair representation ranking results should be used when more than one choice is to be selected. Why? When there are 100 voters, 51 of them can choose the first winner, so the other 49 voters deserve extra influence in choosing the second winner (instead of letting the 51 voters also choose the second winner). When should representation results be used? When a second candidate is elected to a second equivalent seat in a state legislature, or when an organization pursues a simultaneous second activity in addition to the most popular activity.
