Essay

Table 22-9
Sophie, Huan, and Santiago are lost with no map or GPS available. They come to an intersection at which they can turn left, turn right, or continue going straight. Their preferences are summarized in the table.
$$\begin{array} { | l | l | l | l | } \hline & \text { Sophie } & \text { Huan } & \text { Santiago } \\\hline \text { First choice } & \text { Left } & \text { Right } & \text { Straight } \\\hline \text { Second choice } & \text { Right } & \text { Straight } & \text { Left } \\\hline \text { Third choice } & \text { Straight } & \text { Left } & \text { Right } \\\hline\end{array}$$
-Refer to Table 22-9. The travelers decide to conduct pairwise voting with the majority determining the outcome of each vote to decide their next move. Sophie is very confident that the travelers need to go left but she is having a difficult time convincing her friends. If she wants to ensure that the result of the voting is "left," how should she organize the voting?
