Neco Model Questions Vol1 2024 Government Question 22

Four political parties contest a single‑member constituency. The first‑preference vote shares are: Party A (35\%), Party B (30\%), Party C (20\%), Party D (15\%). Under the Alternative Vote system, the candidate with the fewest votes is eliminated and their votes are redistributed according to the voters' next preferences. The (15\%) of votes for Party D are redistributed as (40\%\) to Party B, (35\%\) to Party C and (25\%\) to Party A. If no candidate has an absolute majority after this round, the candidate now with the lowest total is eliminated and their votes are redistributed according to the same pattern: (60\%\) to Party B and (40\%\) to Party A. Determine which party wins the seat under the Alternative Vote system.
