# Simpson – defeats only the write-in candidates (3,338 to 165 for all write-in candidates combined)

=== Hypothetical results under various voting systems ===
The winner under other voting methods can be deduced, assuming the electorate did not employ [[tactical voting]] in any case:
 
* Wright would have won under [[Plurality voting|plurality]].
* Kiss won under [[Instant-runoff voting|IRV]], and would have won under a [[two-round system]] vs Wright
 
This makes it more ambiguous as to how to record the exact margins of some pairwise matchups where groups of candidates are involved, as even if all candidates in a group of candidates pairwise beat all candidates not in the group, they may each do so with different margins.<br />
