Why Voting Fails With More Than Two Choices
Imagine a poll asking "Which of these is your favorite color?" The choices are Azure, Sky Blue, and Red.
Result:
Azure: 30%
Sky Blue: 30%
Red: 40%
Red is the most liked choice.
Then the same people are polled with the question, "Which of these do you dislike the most?"
Result:
Azure: 20%
Sky Blue: 20%
Red: 60%
Conclusion: The most liked choice is the most disliked choice.

I'm curious about what others here think of that message.
