The board of a company has to elect a new CEO. Three members are on the board, 1,2,3. After a first round of selection, three candidates are left: α, β and γ. Preferences are as followed:
• Board member 1 prefers α to β and β to γ;
• Board member 2 prefers β to γ and γ to α;
• Board member 1 prefers γ to α and α to β;
To decide on the new CEO, they vote (secret ballot, one member one vote). Member 1, the chair of the board, is the tie breaker: if the vote is tied, the winner will be the candidate for whom member 1 votes.
