Olympiad: fair votes, close counts and who decides ★★★, sentence 2

The rule can change the winner: count once, or knock out the last one and pass their papers to each voter's next choice, like numbering boxes in Australia, or win group by group like the US states, and the same papers can crown a different winner.

Who acts: rule, same papers · What happens: change, count, knock out, pass, number, win · To what, where: winner, last one, papers, next choice, boxes, Australia
