Line 4:
Every possible set of candidates is given a score equal to the Borda points of voters who are ''solidly committed'' to the candidates in that set. A voter is solidly committed to a set of candidates if he ranks every candidate in this set strictly above every candidate not in the set. At each counting step, all candidates who are not supported by the coalition are eliminated, and the ballots are recalculated (the coalition points are not), until one candidate has a majority of poinrs,
 
{{Tenn voting example}}
Since no candidate has more than half of the points, we rank the coalitions
 
* 600 {M,N,C,K}
* 348 {N,C,K}
* 252 {M,N,C}
* 210 {M,N}
* 160 {C,K}
* 130 {N,C}
* 126 {M}
* 78 {N}
* 51 {K}
* 45 {C}
 
 
 
Since the coalition with the most points that does not involve Knoxville, we re-rank the points
