⚠️
Note — Round 3 tiebreaker used
Details

In Round 3, Martin Michlmayr and Bdale Garbee were tied with exactly 146 votes each for fewest votes. IRV rules require eliminating the candidate(s) with fewest votes. This result used simulated random selection, eliminating Martin Michlmayr. In a real election, this would be resolved by lot drawing or other official tiebreaker procedure.

Overvotes are ballots where multiple candidates are ranked at the same, highest-ranking position.

† - This example employs a limited form "batch elimination", where a batch of multiple candidates who (in sum total) do not have enough remaining top preferences to defeat the next highest candidate in the rankings. †† - When a tie occurs, per the laws in the City and County of San Francisco and the laws in the state of Maine, the losing candidate for the round is randomly eliminated.
