Suppose it worked this way:

There is an election, featuring candidates A, B, C, D and E. People go to the polls and vote for their favourite candidate. The votes are counted and C gets the least.

There is then a second election, featuring candidates A, B, D and E. People go to the polls and vote for their favourite candidate. The votes are counted and D gets the least.

There is then a third election, featuring candidates A, B and E. People go to the polls and vote for their favourite candidate. The votes are counted, and B gets more than 50% of the vote and is elected.

Would that seem fair, or unfair?
