My comments on your previous example weren't correct. It was actually a three-way tie, and so is this new example. Both have been resolved randomly, because there is no data available for making a non-random ranking. Since the random tie-breaking involves looking at the preferences on a randomly selected ballot, it will normally favor someone's first choice. I'm not sure why I got A as the winner in the first example. Maybe I misread the output. I input the same data again and got M36 as the winner this time.
