Who Really Won? — How votes get counted, and why the rule can change the winner

When a vote has more than two choices, the way you count the papers can change who wins — this lesson shows exactly how. One class of 21 kids, three places to go on the last day of school, and three completely honest ways to count the same votes: most votes wins, a run-off between the top two, and counting everybody's second choice as well. You are the one holding the box. You find a rule that hands you the trip you wanted, and then you have to decide what to do about it.
