 [[Image(http://sightline.wpengine.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/Foodtown-Legislature-square.jpeg, 40%, right)]] The U.S. uses the voting system of First Past the Post (or winner-takes-all election), which ''can'' cause a candidate who has won less than the majority to win all the votes, resulting in disproportionate representation.
 
+A reasonable alternative to this system, which would discourage the spoiler effect, is the alternative vote, also known as instant-runoff voting. Read more about the alternative vote [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instant-runoff_voting here] and/or watch [https://youtu.be/3Y3jE3B8HsE this video] explaining the process (more fun).
+
+Implement a ballot counter for the alternative voting system. You will write a class that will be given a list of {{{Vote}}} objects (defined below) and must process them and determine any winners.
