How to read this:
Ranked Choice Voting eliminates the last-place candidate each round, transferring their
ballots to each voter's next ranked choice still in the race.
Ballots in contest = voters who ranked at least one candidate here.
Active votes = ballots still assigned to a remaining candidate in a given round.
Exhausted ballots = ballots where all ranked choices have been eliminated.
Vote counts shown in each round reflect votes before that round's elimination.
Ties broken alphabetically by candidate ID (NYC BOE uses random draw; ties are rare at scale).
